Default I need a razor case

Looking for case for all the new razors I seem to have bought while in some weird hypnotic state. Eventually I suppose I will have my own 7 day set made up of different types until I make a decision on what I prefer. So something that holds this many would be good. I'd prefer a hard case that I can kind of stow away as I have a little guy who does not need to know I have these. Thanks

I just missed out on that one was was for sale..too bad, that was a nice one.

A temporary (or permanent, your choice) case is a cigar box. Some of the smokeshops here will give you the cheap wooden ones or sell you the nice one inexpensively. Others have charged a buck or two for the cheap wooden boxes.
If you can score one of the nice wooden ones, use balsa wood to make the inserts to hold the razors and then cover that with velvet

good idea..I didn't even think of that. I am not the handiest of people though, that's for sure ... I suppose that is why I am a social worker by trade.

If you wanted to take the DIY route, you could go with the cigar box and cut out some soft foam (like in those badass cases people carry bombs and viruses in in movies) to hold your razors in place. Then you could even travel with them and know they're safe.

I got a black Honeywell box off a friend that I store my razors in, and I might get some foam myself (it would allow me to store them spine up, which means I could fit more.

One of these days in your travels, a guy is going to show you a brand-new deck of cards on which the seal is not yet broken. Then this guy is going to offer to bet you that he can make the jack of spades jump out of this brand-new deck of cards and squirt cider in your ear. But, son, do not accept this bet, because as sure as you stand there, you're going to wind up with an ear full of cider.
