Not long ago, I got a nice Lyman 4 cavity mold at a swap meet. This being the first 4 gang mold that I've gotten, I needed the special handles for it.
Well, right now Lyman 4 gang mold handles can be a little difficult to get, plus they hinge on the front, not on the back. I prefer mold handles that hinge on
the back like most 2 gang handles do.
I was surfing around on the web and came up with KAL Tool and Die handles. Here's a link to their website:

I contacted owner Rick Kalynuik asking about shipping, payment, etc (since he is in Canada) by the email addy on his website. He responded right away with information re. the questions I asked and made the transaction fairly easy. He stayed with me all along by email, informing me when my payment was received, and again when the item was shipped.
Today, I received my KAL Tool and Die 4 cavity bullet mold handle for Lyman blocks. Wow, what a nice casting tool. Just like KAL's website says, the steel is precision cut by laser, not a rough product like Lyman. I fit the mold blocks in about 30 seconds with no problems; the fit was wonderful. PLUS: They open from the front, unlike Lyman.
KAL also makes 2 cavity mold handles both large and small for Lyman, and also RCBS. The also make a six cavity mold handle for Lee molds. Money well spent, in my opinion.
