I use sewing machine oil. It is a very highly refined mineral oil. It will not harm your blade, but wipe it on and wipe most of the excess off. I have found that moisture can get trapped under the oil and promote black spots on your blade.

I have designed and patented a straight razor case. Look for it under the vendor section or go to my website, Alembic Products

+1 this is what I do an I find it to be the best solution.

I would guess no. I bought some baby oil and just put a little bit on a cotton ball and put a light film of it over my blade. I think that should be sufficient.

Ty I will wipe the excess off. I was leaving them drenched in oil.

Just got my Alembic case last week. Very nice. Some of you guys may need several, however, as it only holds 7 razors.

Does it house any size?

If you go to the site, it has something you can compare your razor to to see if it fits.

I can send you a pdf of the template for sizing. Let me know if you want it. Just send me your e-mail address by private message.
