Traveling

Ok, gonna be traveling in a couple of weeks (by car) and don't want to go to the expense quite yet of a leather travel sheath for the razor and a specialized doo-hickey for the brush if I don't have to. I figure I probably have a pill container that will fit my brush.

Don't know what to do with the razor however. Figure it's not good for the razor or my bag to be bouncing around without the blade covered. What ideas do you have?

TIA,
Tony

Tony, It's not a problem. DE razors are sturdy and obviously it will travel sans blade. If you're going to be in a different hotel/motel every night, and don't want to use a fresh blade daily, then just wrap it heavily in tissue paper and pack it so that it won't move around in your luggage. Hope you have a pleasant trip.
Regards,
Gordon

Definitely don't leave the blade in the razor. Blades are inexpensive and the blade will get scuffed up.

Unless you have a wet bag like this with separate pockets, a T-shirt is your friend. I just roll up the razor in the T-shirt and pack it in the suitcase with the blades separate.

Gordon speaks the truth. But I would start with a brand new blade and keep the wrapper to store the blade in between shaves.
