    Default Walnut Kami stand courtesy of my Dad and some Carpenter ants

    I was complaining to my Dad that there seem to be no commercially available stands for kami shavers so he made me this one
    out of some walnut that the local ants had for lunch. Rustic and awesome. Thanks Dad!

    Nice looking stand but might be a bit dangerous with the blade displayed edge exposed.

    Agreed, so I have it in the corner of my shaving space where you wouldn't bump into it unless you were trying to. It's
    really stable too, so hopefully no issues. If there's an incident, I'll post an update!

    Spooky but very nice! Klutzy as I am, I would have a serious bleeding problem sooner than later!

    I dig it. If no one messes with your stuff and you are the only one touching it, it is a total winner.
    Extremely nice! (like the goat!)

    That's my Shaving Goat! It's a knife rest I use during my shave. It you set your razor down with the maker's mark aligned with the goat's back, it's perfectly secure. Good for when I am lathering
    my second and third passes. The stand is just for storage.

    Now I like that... Totally original and out of the box thinking.

    I can see where the exposed blade could be a bit dangerous if ones not paying attention.
