Thread: Razor Storage

Let me guess... you don't have cats, do you?

Here is a picture of what I decided to use. The test tube rack works perfect. I did have to dremel the hole out of round to accommodate larger blades. I also have the magnets to hang a razor after use, leaving it a bit open to let it completely dry before putting it away.

Looks good Robini. I may have to try this eventually. I think one member that used a test tube rack just made a small notch for the spine if the blade to fit in.

Here is an idea that I have used for both man cave and retail antique store selling. The photo does not show razors. Get the taller "Florists' frog." They usually are about 4-5 inches in diameter.

They can hold quite a few straights. with the wedge end up.

That is how I began and found it easier just to make the circles into ovals. Either way works just fine.

I keep mine in toothbrush holders.

A jewelry box for the mass, a flower frog for proper drying.

Did you have to modify them any? I know I couldn't get a standard razor in most toothbrush holders I've had, much less a big chopper.

Did not have to modify any and even my Fili 14 EPBD fits, some are a tight fit as it not just dropping in without turning a certain way but so far so good.

I have decorated a Christmas tree with fishing lures, deer, squirrel, pheasant, and grouse tails.
It was a outdoorsman theme.
