Just wanted to show off a straight razor display case I use for my collection. I found a soft sunglass display case off Amazon for the box, and designed and 3d printed spacer supports for the razors to fit into and stay upright. I love being able to browse through my collection to pick a razor to use, and have since this photo outgrew one and needed to add a second!

That's great. Nice application. A well done display is always nice to see. You might want to get some desiccant packs to keep inside it to avoid moisture build up.
Very nice work. Thanks for sharing.
I make sure to dry and oil everything before going back into storage for any length of time and so far has been doing the trick.Quote:

It's like looking into the future lol. A few years in I have maybe 35-40 razors in my personal collection and a backlog of over 100 razors for restoration/repair, I'm sure down the road my organizer will look the same.
Its best to get something that hold twice what you have in stock as collections grow...Attachment 347107

Courtesy of my lovely wife. The picture was painted by my daughter and is based on René Magritte's painting "Ceci n'est pas une pipe"
In the words of someone else " I'm well jell" .I've got a young child so I have to think about that but looking for ideas to display, I'm thinking of a photo frame with depth but opens up maybe lockable. Things is searching for that is a mine field just loads of tatt comes up.
Any ideas guys?

There is this style of case. There are a lot of them around and many configurations.
If I'm right, I believe there's a thread on the subject.
Do a advanced search of posts, for razor storage. There's all kinds of ideas
Found them Mike cheers.. ��
I bought a Gerstner chest many years ago when they were made in the U.S and affordable. It locks up and stores a good number of razors.
I saw this Hamilton printer's cabinet in an antique shop today.

It might take a little modification to the drawers but it could make a fabulous razor cabinet.
I've got a drafting cabinet, that I'm using as a tool chest at the moment.
Being a bachelor, and not having to follow the rules of married life, I put some of my kit in the dining room China cabinet.
