"Bowl Buddy" handle design, exclusive to AP Shave Co. It is designed to catch on the lip of thinner, shorter bowls (will not work on thicker / longer bowls), and also doubles as slot where you can hang the brush your stand!
Why is ebonite priced high? The answer is time, and material cost. The cost of Japanese ebonite is x2 the cost of resin from the UK. It takes x2 longer to machine it and gives off sulphuric gases (only during production, don't worry it doesn't smell in your hands) as the base material is a rubber compound. It also takes 2 times longer to polish (polishing a rubber compound is no easy task). All of this factors into the price for this absolutely stunning material (photos don't do it justice imo!)

- Crafted by hand
