Thread: Cheap protective sleeves for razors

I'm aquiring a lot of flea market razors and would like to provide some scratch protection for the scales. I'll figure to keep them in a box with some silica gel packets.

I found these pen sleeves (they have some others also).
Bear Tooth Woods - Lightweight Drawstring Pouch
I asked them for appoximate dimensions and they replied;
They are all about 6 inches long and will hold a ¾” diameter pen. The slender will only hold a ½” diameter pen.

What other solutions have you folks used?

go to your local cigar aficionado store. You know, the one where everyone hangs out and smokes.
ask for a few cigar boxes, and look for ones with the plastic inserts, which are perfect for keeping your razors separated.
throw a packet of silica or two in each that you get in shipping boxes and you have a nice free razor storage with style.

Another way to keep them, you can get scrap leather from eBay for real cheap. You could just wrap the razors in it, or fashion your own sleeves

There was just a post about making your own cases that looked easy and really REALLY good!

Thanks everyone.
Benjamin, I like the boxes. Maybe I'll try and put my kids to work on them.
