How do you store your SRs?

I have 10 SRs and currently I store them in a tote box. Some are in their original boxes (i have 2 Carbo Magnetic SRs and their boxes are quite interesting). I have some that have no boxes and I am trying to decide what is the best way to store them..both for looks and safety...and preservation.

Any suggestions?

I have some of mine on a wall display. The others I have in a harbor freight wooden machinist tool box. I don't have a picture of it on me.

Hacker, i'd love to see the wooden machinist tool box if you can get a pic of it.

I recently won this, to keep the slim ones in.

I put a couple on my chest of drawers, the rest in a small cardboard box in the razor draw. I've had quite a few nice vintage wooden boxes over the years, but they seem to end up in the draw too. Fortunately all my money ends up on hones, which seem quite well suited to sitting in draws and cupboards.

Yep it's a half bath, toilet/sink with just enough room and it's all mine. ;)

Here's the other half.

I have mine stored every way imaginable and then a couple more . The pics aren't that great but if you can't see what I mean I promise to explain some day when the collection stops growing. Pfffff when ever that is.

The medicine cabinet holds my daily rotation which pretty much has been the same for years except for a visiting Sheffield from time to time :<0)

>>>>>>> wooden boxes, barbers wooden boxes, custom boxes, card board boxes, cases of sets, canvas rolls cloth rolls, rag rolls, stands made of wood, plastic and metal, dense foam with holes ( to find these look at how they sell Husky pliers and such at the Depot). All in a display case or out in the shop in drawers covey holes, or on the bench getting work. Crap, just found 1 in my back pocket :<0) Someday, I swear, I am going to have a nice room like Marty .

When out of the rotation, I use display cases designed for HO trains. This one houses American blades.

I will be moving them out of the office and to an empty room at home soon and will add non-glare glass at that time.

Oh yes I've since expanded to the left and to the right. It's an older photograph.

It fits them perfect and as you can see I even have each one of mine in sheaths and they still fit.

I have about 20 of which 6 need sharpening, the others are in a wooden "Shooting Box" with "Ready" stickers on the handles. One of these days I'll pick up one of those Barbers display boxes you see on E-Bay every now an then. I do rotate my razors every 2 shaves or so, This morning I'll be shaving with my Griffon XX No. 60 "Carbo-Magnetic" razor. I also check E-Bay every now an then and am able to pick up a box for a "Naked" razor I have. Its tough to find undamaged boxes though.

That's pretty cool didn't realize harbor freight sold boxes like that. I've only got 5 razors at the moment but feel my RAD acting up so something like may be in my future[emoji1]
