Cheap flexible storage option for knives and boxes.

[DeSotoSky]

My collection is out of control storage wise. I've been working on this corner today. Doesn't look it.

I have two of these old 4 sided rotating store display units waiting for rearrangement of the man cave to house my collection, part of it anyways. They are neat because the base cabinet provides additonal locked storage.

I found these cheap plastic 3 drawer cabinets at WalMart for about $13 each. The drawers are just the right size for a variety of loading options.

I wouldn't normally jumble these knives together like this but just to show you can fit 10 sheath knives in a drawer up to 119 size. There are 27 pocket knife boxes in this drawer. Or a couple of twinsets with room to spare.

8 Buck 110 size sheaths or 8 miscellaneous size boxes.

7 medium size boxes or 3 110 size jewel cases plus extra.

As you can see, it wouldn't be hard to put $500 to $1,000 worth of knives in the 3 drawers. $13 is cheap protection. Hope some of you may find this a useful idea. /Roger.

I just bought one the other day. Cut out the recess in the top of it (to use as a tray) and put it on the hump in the truck. I do currently have two buck knives sitting in the top of it along with all the other crap that goes in the truck. Then I used the bottom two drawers for papers and receipts.

I think all of us have a storage problem as we get more knives. I use a bunch of cardboard boxes that I got from work. They are not too high and have a flap top that opens. They work for now but i can see they won't in the future as I get more knives.

Do a search on storage ideas from several years past, we spent a couple of threads worth of time on this back when......What I remember is everyone had their own methods.....300

Its always an issue that needs a solution regardless of the size of the accumulation.

A friend of mine who sold jewlery gave me this info and it seems to be just what the doctor ordered. I was gonna get at least one until my wife got me a display drawer/case for my birthday and for the time being I had enough room. Nearly out now.

Rugged stackable wooden tray. Clear view magnetic lid. Measures 14 3/4" x 8 1/4" x 1 1/2"

I haven't got any yet, but I figger with them being stackable and good sized, they would work well with knives. cheap too, under $7 apeice. I hope this isnt deal spotting since it isnt an auction, just trying to help
