    Default I'm looking for a box for a japanese Straight

    I recently purchased an Iwasaki from SRD. It is my new favorite razor (but I digress). It came in a plastic sleeve and I am trying to find a wooden box like what you see here.

    Doe anyone know where I can get one?

    The most gratifying thing to do would be to make your own box.

    I did (sort of). I am not happy with it.
    A man has to know his limitations.
    Now I am looking to buy one.

    Sired8 - Thanks for rubbing it in. I have a paper cut on my tongue why not pass by with a bottle of lemon juice. It was some of your posts and reviews that pushed me over the edge to get the Iwasaki. So thank you for that.

    InstaRad - thank your for the link but that's really just not my style. BTW, as a vet I really appreciate your tag line.

    Pdobson - PM sent.

    In case any of you are wondering how the search is going, this is what Rob and I have come up with for his razors.




    The woods are curly teak, figured sugar maple, cocobolo, and African ebony. There are hidden magnets to hold the razors in place on their beds.

    I agree...A really outstanding beautiful and highly functional piece of craftsmanship.
