OK, then keep THAT one away from leather.

I have been aware of the risk of corrosion from leather for a long time but I have stored a set of my first razors in a leather roll since 2002, and for the first 9 years that roll was kept in an old and humid University gym locker. Those 7 razors still have no rust issues.
