This can has been around for half a century,and is still in production. A perfect size with a heavy duty cap that fits nice and tight on this very sturdy thick walled metal cylinder. Smaller sticks will fit easy,the medium size GZD Berber fits great,but still has a little room for larger sticks.You can squeeze the extra large sticks like Erasmic and Irisch Moos in,and only get a few shavings run off,those can just be gathered up and pressed back onto the top of the stick after loading..You can find these as cheap as $3 if you look around...

Thats neat. So you just pop it right out and use it?
I wouldn't use a metallic tin for a shave stick.
Tetanus/lockjaw doesn't come directly from rust, but rust provides an environment (warm and moist) that can harbor the disease.

Looks good. You might try adding a lining of thin cardboard or posterboard inside the can: most of the vintage metal containers seemed to have a liner of some kind. I suppose it was there to protect the metal, not the soap.
agreed. my old metal tin has a think sleeve of cardboard in it as well.
