As my collection of straights grows, I have almost as many that need restoration/re-scaling as I do that are shave ready and in my rotation.
I was leaving them laid out flat in my closet(in the shave den) but they were out of sight, out of mind.
I was using this pipe rack for my DE's but since switching to straights, I had no need to keep them on display.
Next time you are in an antique store and see a pipe rack/stand, it makes a handy holder for your project blades(and with some modification, will hold any scaled straight too.)
