A knife sharpener comprises a scabbard 10 for receiving a knife blade 13. A sharpening device 11 is carried within the scabbard to engage a blade edge 14 within the scabbard 10 and can be moved manually along the scabbard to sharpen the blade edge 14. Thus, sharpening is accomplished while the blade is within the scabbard. A locking device 31 is provided to hold the blade within the scabbard 10. Part 46 of the scabbard 10 may be displaced to allow the sharpening device 11 to be removed for cleaning.

The pack consists of a single card having an aperture therein shaped and dimensioned to receive and support the heads of a stack of disposable razors. The handle of each razor contains a slot and the assembled handles are secured to the card by a tongue which extends through the slots in the razor handles and is secured at its opposite ends to the card. In a modification, the slots are formed in the ends of the razor handles and a part of the card extends into each of the slots.
