My favorite reed case is the ProTec reed case. It costs around $12. I like it because it holds 12 reeds and has a little room to put some drying papers and a "wiggle" card! It holds 6 on one side and 6 on the other against a flat divider in the middle of the case.

I'll have to agree with Benni.

It's also the only reed case that holds a bunch of reeds AND fits smartly into an R-13 case.

I just received a Harris reed case that I ordered. Its in beautiful walnut, holds 7 reeds against glass, and seems beautiful and functional.

Try again....the Reed Machine Reed Case is the one I was indicating
Hygrometer and humidifier with glass
The latch seems nicer than some of the others

I use an old Altoids tin in which I have some pieces of plexiglas with rubber "O" rings on them. The reeds slip under the O rings!

Check out the work Walter Grabner does, especially in exotic woods. I have a beautiful Bass Clarinet one in Maple he made for me.

I have the reed machine reed case and it is well designed and works very well. It is also a beautiful case.

Alex - The Pro Tec guard also fits nicely into a Selmer Vanguard case . . . ;-)

Laurie - "Wiggle card" - My term for a credit card-type card used to wiggle between the reed and the facing of the mpc when a reed starts to die out (close up) on you.
