Thread: Display case meets Vintage Tool chest

That's fantastic....I've been looking for a more permanent type of storage for my razors for awhile and this is the first time I've seen something that makes sense.

Now I have to try to find one of these old machinist boxes.

Thanks!

I love my old Gerstner box - but mine is filled with machinist tools.
Wonderful use for it though and glad to see another one in good condition.

Very cool! great tool box, i rotated your pics.

BEAUTIFUL!! Great old tool box full great old razors.

Looks a LOT nicer than my plastic Plano tackle box.

Fantastic! What a beautiful case to display those beautiful razors in.

Very nice, only fitting that razors from another era have a home that matches...

There is something about that quarter sawn oak...

Did you have to restore it or was it in this excellent shape?

And thanks for sharing.

They are built to last, so it was in great shape. Washed it with Murphy Oil soap twice. It you look at the hardware it needs to be polished. The company carries all replacement parts back to when they started. This one was considered damaged by the purists because of the lockset that was added and removed on the right. It makes the perfect spot to insert an eye-hook that I keep for hanging strops.
If i had to grab my gear and go.Everything you need is organised.Tools, stones, brushes, soaps, straights, scuttles and a mirror for in a pinch. Functional and organised around here we call it Midwestern values.
If you get one you will never want to part with it,just be forewarned. Its built old school, and the company stand behind the product.

That is a nice Box. Always wanted one.
