Magnets & Razors? Should they be avoided?
I won't be surprised if this is posted in the wrong forum, but it was the best place I could think of..
I am making a stand that will hold only one razor, currently in rotation. I want it only as a place to deposit the razor to dry between shaves. Once out of rotation, it would go back in the drawer. I am considering a small rare earth magnet in the design. Only the very tip of the tail would touch it. I can't think that the short time the blade would be exposed to the magnet would cause any problem, but I suppose it could. A magnetized blade would be hold on to metal when the blade is honed... that can't be good.
What says the pros?
Not a problem? Or avoid it and come up with a different design?---------------------------------------------------
