    Default Straight Razor Box

    I was in the internet market for a straight box or leather case. I love TI's wooden boxes but they are quite priced and hard to find.
    So decided to make my own.
    I bought an empty wooden box (sold as "box to be decorated", at the price of €7) and some shiny textile, I painted it, build the partitions and now I enjoy my new, luxury 7days straight razor box!

    The box, as bought:



    The partitions:



    The box painted:



    And the final result:

    That is very classy looking!
    A box like that would look good most anywhere

    +1 for Birnando. Very nice and a great display piece. Thanks for sharing. My only suggestion would be to add some desiccant for humidity incursions.

    I keep a couple of silica gel bags in the box. I hope that is enough.
    Anyway, the place I live have quite low air humidity most of the time.

    It looks deep enough to have a double decker for smaller razors.
