Thread: Straight razor storage

These cigar boxes seem like a good idea. Where do you get them from? I don't smoke so don't really want to buy a full box.

Check your local smoke shop.
Around here, they sell them.

Some cigar shops sell them cheap some give them away. I found my best one on the bay for $7.00 other one was free from local shop.
I have since filled both of these and have more in other boxes. The My fathers box is two tiered the top tray comes out with another tray below it.

Holy moly Voidmaster, now that's a collection. One day I hope to be where you are.

Lots of folks feel this way and you will find others say no big deal to store in bathroom. I have my own play room that the wife dont use or clean. And i made a display board for mine. Well for most of mine. Ha.Attachment 271680

Very nice but what do you do with the boxes? I have only a dozen or so and use a pipe rack for the six favorites. Most of the boxes are beat up, but I don't want to throw them away...collecting is collecting. What do you guys do? I'm trying to quit.

I save mine. Most of the razors I've collected in the wilds, have no box, and the ones that do, don't match the contents.

But over my time collecting, I've been able to reunite a few with the proper razor.

In the mean time, I use them to hold razors that I'm restoring, keeping them from undo damage till their done.

I found an old box at a flea market several years ago that was used for Potatoes and Onions. I took it apart, slimmed it down and refinished it and made this case.

Can't see It, no picture.

Disregard that. See it in my reply now. Beautiful job man.
