    I came in from walking the dog to see this. Perfect timing! Haven’t seen that Sparschweinchen in a while!

      It’s that Koraat box! Because of the larger box size, the Sparschweinchen sits behind all other straights in my out-of-reach-of-curious-toddlers top shelf and gets used less frequently than other razors. I should just bite the bullet, get rid of that pretty box and stick it in a smaller razor sleeve 😅

        Heresy! What about getting an over-the-top shelf?

        That being said, the TI leather sleeve is neat.

          As the tallest in the family, all the over-the-top shelf space is arleady my natural habitat in this apartment. The ceilings are 3.80 high, so that’s quite a bit of usable real estate :)

          I have mixed feelings about that TI sleeve. Since it doesn’t actually close and the razor can slide out, it’s not something you could just through in a box of razors, unlike razors in these Maggard sleves for instance. So I’m left with something that looks and feels neat, but still needs to go in some sort of secondary container in my box of razors.

              Oh, that’s nice!

              Mines just a sleeve, with an open end. @gcgallant’s le Grelot has the same. I didn’t know some TIs come with good pouches like yours. TIL

                This might be because it’s old - I bought it second hand off eBay, and the engraving shows sign of ware.
