    Default How do you store your rotation razors?

    How do you guys store your rotation razors? Do you store them in their box (if you have it) in a drawer? Do you try not to use the box to keep the box looking good? Do you purchase one of the Dovo plastic boxes to store them and set your vintage boxes aside? Ideally I would like to have a shelf like Lynn sells and have the ones I use displayed, and I'm working on that; however, in the mean time, I would like to see what most people without this option do.

    Also if you do display the razors that you use, how do you do it? Pics would be nice here too!

    Thanks,
    Tod

    I keep some in drawers, some on a countertop in a half bathroom adjacent to the regular bathroom where I shave. Every now and then I give them a wipe down with a rust preventative impregnated gun cloth whether they need it or not. I do have a few that are not in use stored in the box but as a rule I just lay them in a drawer without the box. Here are a few of the rotation.

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    My razors live in mugs, and I store the boxes separately. One of the mugs contains my current rotation. The rest are RAD.

    Holy Crap! That is some serious RAD! You are either single or have your wife under some sort of mystical spell. My wife's already ticked and all I have is 13. Good Job!

    Jimmy,

    Nice lot! Is there a method to the rotation?

    I have a small 3 drawer cabinet that I lay them on top of. When I get the cash they will have there own case with lid.

    I use one dry and strop it, then move it to the back of the line.

    No Tod there is not. I either take one that I'm honing or if not I look at the assortment and one of them calls to me.
