Are the handles on these solid?

Yes, I believe they're solid, though that's a relative term as the blade goes through the handles for mounting purposes.

Yes, they are very solid holds; just make sure to use long enough screws. I also added lock washers on my set to help prevent the screw from becoming loose. Love these hand holds!

Yes, they are solid stainless steel. I was very pleased with the look and feel.

No, they are not. Only the handles are stainless. The rest is chrome plated steel. A simple magnet is all that's required to prove this. Stainless steel is not magnetic. So if the magnet sticks to it, it is not stainless.

No, they are pretty solid, they are probably about as easy to bend as exhaust pipe is.

They probably would, but I didn't get to use them that extensively sadly. The handles are very cheap and snapped on me the first time I used them. Sorry.

They're solid. Holes drilled to use pins if needed but they work just fine without them. Well made.

Yes the handles are riveted on. There are heads on the inside, however they are smooth.

Yes, with the handles outside of the ones each is nesting in. Check them when you get them, however, as the first set we got were broken - little chips and shards off the edges of 2 of them, rendering them unusable.

The bottom is solid but the handles are week. Should be good for light loads. The zipper broke during the first use but I did have it overloaded for its size.

They're not really "weighted" but we haven't had any problems with them. They are good quality and solid.

Yes except for the handles. They have to be attached with a Philips Head screwdriver.

Yes they do. However, handles are made of plastic so take it easy when you pull on them.

Very solid, cant picture causing a bend these handles through any standard usage.

Hi Alan, These are quite lightweight, not the heavy type at all. The backs of the handles show the reverse 'press' of the front, which diminishes the looks a bit, in my opinion. I hope this helps -

No they are not. They are as light as the wooden handles. If you're looking for weighted ones you better look for something else.

They are solid, they feel like they could be solid wood. It is almost an inch thick and does not have any give or flex. :) I hope this answer was helpful.
