How do you store your rotation razors?

Can't take credit for the cabinet work.It's a pre-made pin display case from a hobby store.I did have to take the back off,and install some plywood to screw the hooks into.The case came with a pressed cardboard backing and I didn't trust it to hold.

I got this idea from Scott at Rasage Poulin.

I don't use the scuttle otherwise.

I keep them in plastic pencil boxes (each holds 16 to 20 razors); in their own cases if they have one. The current 3 or 4 favorites are on a shelf ready-to-grab. All are lightly oiled at all times.

I have one of these excellent Barber's boxes from Tony. It holds 20 in storage.

The ones in rotation are in these boxes my wife gifted me:

Great looking boxes. Could you provide some info on them?

Scuttle? What? It isn't a pen holder?

Thanks.

The barber's boxes Tony used to sell. Here is his description. They are very nice and well made, and will hold all but the largest barber's use blades. My wife made me a nice 7 razor roll for those.

The 7-razor boxes were also a gift from her. I started a thread about them a few months ago here.

I have a vintage smoking pipe rack the straights fit into nicely. Got it on ebay for $10, and it has 12 places. My Herbert Wacker and TI are too hefty for the holes and I'll have to widen the holes a bit for them when I get around to it, but that will be easy. A little Renaissance wax makes the whole thing like it was made for nice razors.

Here is a really cool vintage option available on the Bay, if anyone is interested. A bit out of my price range, but may fit someone's needs perfectly. It is a Buy it Now, so I don't think this will mess with anyone that is watching this:

Now that I'm acquiring razors at a breakneck pace, I need a storage solution. I love Ray's options but since they are custom made I think I'm out of luck. It doesn't look like TM is making his boxes anymore either.

So, does anybody know of any places to pick up a nice box for storage? I'm not interested in displaying razors, just having a nice spot to keep them.
