I'm assuming most of you have hundreds of blade packets. Do you have a cool container or storage for them?
Where do you store your blade packets?

I use an old cigar box that sits on top of my dresser. This way they stay out of the humid bathroom.
I keep my bulk blades (cartons of them) on a shelf in my office.
I keep a "few" loose blades in a drawer in the sink cabinet so that I have a decent choice of what to use.

I keep mine in a drawer in the bathroom, but I store them in Ziplock bags with a silica gel packet in there to absorb and moisture. Not pretty, but functional!!
+1 I use an old Ashton VSG box for mine and it does the job perfectly!
Drawer in the bathroom.
Plastic container In the Bathroom.
Small cedar box on the dresser.
The cedar keeps it dry without the need for silica.

I got some plastic pencil storage boxes at Office Max. The brand I got has lids that lock on, for a better seal. Each holds 150 blades.

I like this idea. There is a cigar shop just a couple of blocks from me and I love the classy looks of the boxes.
I keep them in my hallway linen closet. I have a selection I leave in the medicine chest.
I have one of these old Gillette bakelite boxes that works very well. I'm not sure if they were originally intended for razor blade storage, but the depth of the box is almost exactly the width of a razor blade.... so it works very well. Holds about 150 to 200 maybe..... the other 3,000 or so blades I have are in a shoebox in my closet.

Mine are in a Maxim's chocolate tin sitting in my hall closet.
I have a small collection, that I keep in an Altoids tin.
Same.

Old wooden cigar box in the bedroom closet.
I use a small plastic kitchen storage container with a lid. It does a great job keeping moisture out. Have never had a problem with it.
That's what I do, but mine are in my dresser. In addition the cigar box, I have several hundred Ladas & Voskhods still in their cards, and a coupe sleeves of Astras
Those that are using silica packets, are you doing anything to dry them out from time to time? They can only absorb so much moisture before needed to be recharged, often by putting them in the oven on low heat. If you're not recharging them, they're not doing much good.
