    Default Razor case(s)

    For those of you who didn't see my pictures, I have been trying to come up with a razor case for travel that will protect and hold a razor snugly.

    I have been making one razor cases, but the most recent is a custom black case I will dub the 'Cutz Case' as it was Cutz that prompted me to create it - this case is a dual razor case on the same order as the single cases but with a definite Harley-esque look in black oiled heavy leather.

    Let me know what you think.

    That looks very nice and would probably be nice for a weekend trip, anything longer thatn that i take a seven day set that fits in my dopp bag.
    Currently i use a few of your one razor cases which i enjoy... what are the dimensions on the double cases and how large a razor will they hold?

    Default It's Magically Delicious!

    Anyways - The case really is just two of the single cases put together in size, approximately 4 inches across, but the flap is substantially longer than the one razor case.

    The two razors that I use in this case for size are my 7/8 vintage DOVO (which is the widest razor I own, and a TI Olivewood 6/8 which is the longest razor I own - due to some really strange mathematics on the scales - they don't fit very well). Any smaller razor would fit just nicely and be rather enveloped by soft leather. I am attaching a picture comparison with an earlier prototype with a shorter flap and not as intricate stitching just to show the size compared to regular case.

    I have a feeling that I am working up to a 7 day roll at some point, at least that is where I am heading. Not going to be able to do it out of leather like this though, this stuff is pretty stout.

    For sale, well I have made an sold a few of the single cases, and I am glad those folks that have them like them - but am I a vendor, no - can't say that, I cannot produce these fast enough to make the endeavor worth while, just good therapy. If you are interested in a case, let me know, and I might just have a few laying around.

    Really very nice. I like that it only holds 2 razors (I'm downsizing...don't think I'll ever really have more than maybe 4 razors once i get my final setup) Awhile back there was some interest in a razor roll and now i see that CS carries a very nice one (not sure if it was there at the time)

    Actually my favorite case is also the simplest I've seen. It's simply a leather slip. Easy to slide the razor in, easy to slide it out (which may not be a good thing if you were travelling but would be easily rectified with a simple clasp which would keep the simplistic look that i like) It's from my TI. Attractive in that less-is-more understated kind of way

    I would be interested in either if you were looking to sell one. I think they are really first rate.
