    Nicely done! Lucky that you can use wall space! I can no longer use any apartment walls for anything since i downsized.

    I think you have solved my apparent "storage issue" (wife's words). Man love this place because you solve my real world problems...with pictures even!

    I have not had to downsize yet but the time is getting closer. Most of my friends, that are still above ground have downsized.

    Very nicely done

    I am assuming that you can easily open that to still use the razors

    Love this! Have wondered about different ways of documenting razor history with razor.

    Info by top razor says scales are bone. Pretty sure those are gold/yellow bovine horn.

    Excellent idea! Where did you get the shadow box?

    Glen The door is heavy so I have to take the unit down to remove a razor. I don't intend to have any of the razors in my regular rotation. The blades are protected from rust with microcrystalline wax polish so I would want to remove the wax prior to stropping.

    I will be changing the way it is mounted to the wall in the future.

    I like your answers!
    Here is another path to having a Mrs pleasing display, but this is rotation display for the shared shave cave.
