i posted this lazybones-rust-protector buried in another thread, but don't think it got a lot of scrutiny. i'm recycling it here:
"i store my razors in a wooden cigar box along with several camphor moth balls. the camphor coats the metal with a very fine oil, protecting the metal from rust. this coating evaporates promptly when the razor is taken out of the box for shaving. quick, not messy, and very effective."
i also should note that it hasn't affected any of the non-metal parts of my razors (wood, plastic, bone, horn etc.).
having tried all of the usual methods ie. silica beads, gun oil, camellia oil etc, i believe this to be the most user-friendly.
