The handle

Gold Rush

Powdered stone bound with Acrylester. Pearlescent, iridescent, genuinely tough. A subtle micro-grip makes it less slippery than most synthetics.

Before you order

Shipping and delivery

Where do you ship?
UK, EU + Switzerland, Canada, the US — and elsewhere on request. Everything goes signed-for via DHL from the workshop in Petworth. See full rates.
How long does delivery take?
UK: next working day after dispatch. EU: 3–5 working days. US / Canada: 5–7 working days. Customs clearance can add a day or two on longer routes; tracking lands in your inbox the moment the parcel scans into DHL.
Will I owe duty or tax on arrival?
For US destinations we collect a flat 13% tariff at checkout so the parcel arrives with nothing further to pay. For other destinations, import VAT and duty (where applicable) are paid on receipt and vary by country — please check your local rules before ordering.
Can it be delivered to a workplace or third-party address?
Yes, but the recipient must be 18 or over and present to sign. UK age-verification on delivery isn't a formality — DHL won't release the parcel without it.
