Best way to store blades

Post by Marsom »

Hello,
I have a few thousand blades that will probably last me the rest of my life. What are the best way to store these blades to preserve them throughout the years? I currently have them in ziplock bags stored in a box and away from the bathroom.

I'd say ziplock bags or Tupperware-style containers with a few packs of silica gel in them. You can always bake the silica gel packs in a low oven for an hour or two to make sure they will absorb any moisture that otherwise might get to your blades.
