I've bought a couple of nice razors -- H. Boker and George Butler -- off ebay recently and both came in toothbrush travel cases. Seems like a good idea for a cheap and easy razor case. And I suppose this has already been discussed here on SRP. So forgive me if I am being redundant. :tu
You mean those plastic toothBRUSH travel cases? That is a good idea. Never thought of that.
My bad. That is what I mean, plastic toothbrush holders. Some may work better than others I'm sure but it was nice of the sellers to include them with the blades. Too bad I cannot edit the headline. ;)
it is funnier this way!
Probably get more views too.
I always send razors in these. You can get good ones at the dollar store. I think the last time I sold some razors I got a three pack with toothbrushes at the dollar store. Toothbrush where flimsy but the cases worked well. The target ones work well also they are about a buck a piece.
Here are pics of the ones that were sent to me with razors. One came with a little bubble wrap stuffed into it to keep the blade from moving around a lot. I think these would be a good idea just keeping them in my drawer. I'll probably use my label maker so I can identify which is which.

I wouldn't store them with the bubble wrap, because it will inhibit the air flow, cotton balls in the ends will allow airflow & prevent them from bouncing around inside,,,,also you can get cheap pantyhose for a $1.00 a pair,,cut the toe out,,,fill with some rice,,tie the cut,,,stuff in the holder & it will allow airflow & fight moisture. You can make 10 or more moisture packets out of a set of pantyhose.
Yeah, I did remove the bubble wrap. But you have a really good idea, Hirlau.
I used a similar holder for travel, the only issue i had was that they can come apart, if they are in a wash bag its ok, as they cant seperate far enough for the razor to fall out, but to be safe i taped the join, and i also picked up some of the little silca gel sachets that you get with shoes and popped them in either end.
Very god timing. Was just looking around for the "real deal". Will use these in a pinch for travel. Thx.
Where do you get your pantyhose? And what brand you prefer? Let the truth come out! LOL!Quote:

those little pieces of panty hose are also very good for holding bait for fishing. It is really effective if you are using roe for bait.
Rice is great at removing moisture for a lot of things. A friend of mine dropped his cell phone in a puddle. I put it in a mason jar full of rice and after a few days it came right back to life. :rock:
Arnold Palmer started wearing pantyhose back in the 1950s for cold weather golf on the PGA Tour. Whatever works.
Toothbrush travel cases and those silicone treated cotton sleeves.
