I want to tidy up my EDC a bit, looking for a box (with cover) that can hold about 10 knives and the daily stuff like wallet, keys etc. I have my unused/collection in Spyderpacs and I dump that into a sterilite bin which works pretty good. But my EDC is messy, currently just dump everything into a Maxpedition travel tray. The only thing I have found is maybe a large cigar box. Hopefully you guys have some better ideas TIA
 
I used a nice cigar box for the task. Right now, it's a My Father Flor de Las Antillas box.

i put my EVERYDAY carry knife on the night stand so i can grab it before i leave the house every day
 
I have about 5 cigar boxes as well. One for small lights, one for folders , one for balisongs, one for spare parts and tools, and one for what I carry most out of all boxes. :p

I don't smoke cigars so I buy the best boxes from a guy at the flea market. Dollar a pop. Seems cheap for how nice the wood and latches are.
 
I picked up a small Boker Knife Vault (holds 6 folders)... but now I need another one lol. The good thing about it is it fits ZT's.
 
I never store my edc because I am in love with my current one and it never leaves my pants. It's always with me no matter what.:D
 
I keep all my knives lined up on my dresser so I can select whichever one strikes my fancy each day. They take up literally the whole dresser these days though, I may need to get a storage box or chest of some kind.

I scoff at that Champion's Box for thinking it can contain the mighty Jarbenza!

And I use a Pelican case I got for Christmas. That and my sock drawer haha.

You notice it has its own compartment. If it even touches a regular blade it's over.
 
I store folders in vintage wooden wine and cigar boxes stored in a safe. Recently I've used a lapidary display case I picked up at a garage sale. Might start using those....lot of different kinds and styles out there that are perfect for an enclosed folder display.

I also like the wooden craft chests and tool stands for larger collections.

Underneath the watches. That's the only two things that I really "need" daily.
 
I used to have all mine on the dresser, then I got a small 3-drawer tool box, put drawer liners in it, and set it on the dresser.

Works like a charm, holds 25 knives or so.
 
I have what I use, it goes from Jeans to dresser at days end, and in reverse when I get dress next day. I have quality not quanity.
 
I use this Plano fishing tackle box that I bought at Walmart. It holds 16 larger folders, but could hold 24 if they were fairly thin, or 36 if they were short and thin. Plano even sells a case that carries 4 of these boxes, so you could carry 144 of your favorite knives with you.

I have a wooden tray picked up at a second hand store that is just a little larger than a cigar box. It holds my wallet, keys, and several knives that I rotate through carry. The other knives that I sometimes "rotate through the rotation" live in a nightstand drawer. Easy to see, easy to pick out the one for the day.
