If you're looking for a place to store you're knives, a tool chest like this (about $200 at Sam's) could be just the thing:

I'd rather it had to shallow drawers on the bottom rather than one, but it still works well.
That's not the helpful hint.
The helpful hint is this: If you choose to store your knives in a chest like this, use that big drawer at the bottom to store sheaths. But if you do store the sheaths in the same drawer as the knives they go with, and if one of those sheaths is a Spec Ops, or something else with loops and cords and other protruding or dangly stuff, and of some of those protruding or dangly things get caught on something so the drawer won't open all the way, whatever you do, don't just reach in there blindly to try to pull out whatever's keeping the drawer from opening all the way. It's a drawer full of knives, for God's sake! And those knives are sharp! So sharp that you might not even know why your fingers are suddenly feeling warm and sticky.
But I'm sure you all knew that already. Or could have figured it out if you'd taken half a second to think.
