About your words, I will not adjective them, the wood at the base is ipe, similar to teak, they are tropical woods with very closed pores that prevent the entry of moisture, they are also treated with teak oil. The hole that bothers you so much and that is not appreciated when the razors rest at the base has its explanation, is to prevent a deposit of moisture in the event that the razor is stored without having dried it well. If that hole were flat, put felt or something like that, it would be an unrecommended source of moisture.
