Knife storage, what do you guys use?

[co556guy]

I don't have enough to justify an "organizational solution."

I just stuff them in my closet.

I have mean dogs to deal with wannabe thieves.

I currently store the knives in my EDC rotation, as well as watches, lighters, and flashlights in one of those Harbor Freight wooden toolchests. Yes, they're inexpensive, but I do like mine. I've got it covered with various knife, beer, and vaping shop stickers.

The other knives which are longterm collection pieces or those I just don't use much are stored elsewhere.

I store mine on every flat surface in the house.

I use the leather knife rolls from SMKW. Between my oldest son and myself we're up to 4 knife rolls and an old boot box for fixed blades and its running over. Some that my wife bought for me are in the gun safe on a shelf because i don't carry them. I keep dessicant packs in the safe for moisture control too.

I store mine on the door of my safe...this not only keeps them safe from my kids & thieves but keeps them humidity controlled.

 

[Landshark99]

i am using these as well, they work very well

Since you have 10 knives currently in your collection - check this out to carry 6 of them (Boker makes a bigger version as well)

That is a nice setup. Do u have any more details in that safe door option? Brand? Where did you buy?

Since the company isn't a BF paying sponsor I can't mention them or add a link. If you pm or email me I'll give you the details! It's a great company to support and comes in a few different varieties for just $10 each. They are marketed for safe doors and have industrial Velcro on the back but could be used practically anywhere.

Used to have so many knives that I was going to get one of those Gerstner wooden storage chests over at AG Russell's site. They're nice.

Then I decided to have kids and gave away most of my collection.

Now the kids are into knives. Wish I hadn't given away the collection, and I'll probably end up with a box of some sort.

Thanks to this thread, I see many other alternatives. Might still end up with the Gerstner though.

Thanks for the submissions, folks. Keep 'em coming!

I restore old machinist chests so I've been thinking about trying to make plexiglass covers that would lay in the drawers, covering and protecting the knives. Kinda like a showcase of sorts. Picture a narrow ledge around the inside perimeter of the drawer about 1/8" shorter than drawer sides. Then lay a piece of 1/8" plexiglass that is a tad smaller than drawer interior.

Nanuk case.

They look Pelican Cases.

Nanuk case.

Could you show a pic of yours in the case..? and what model Nanuk case do you use?

 

[Czechmate]

I store mine on every flat surface in the house.

Yes!!!! This for sure...

I like old silverware boxes; cheap to buy secondhand and classy IMHO if you get older ones made of real wood LOL. I think the largest one cost me $5.00 from a secondhand store. :thumbup:

 

[Wavester]

An affordable alternative, if you decide to go with a burglar-friendly carry case, look at the Seahorse/Serpac cases. We use them at work for taking scientific gear in working underground mines. We've never had a failure. Although not as fancy, Seahorse/Serpac costs a fraction of Hurricane or Pelican cases. (I'm not familiar with Nanuk cases)

Bob - would you say Seahorse case are of the same quality as Pelican cases? Checking the pics they do look similar.

 

[Wavester]

I did something similar to several of the others here, I bought a Husky tool box from Home Depot. It has several drawers which let me organize and I can lock them to keep the kids out.

I have the same thing! My only wish with my setup is that the drawers were deeper.

 

[Wavester]

Very nice

I found a nice $80 solution for a smaller collection at Costco. It's not solid wood, but the build quality and finish detail is impressive for that price. Made by Trinity, each drawer is lined with felt, the front cover has magnets in the corners, and there are nice silicone feet on the bottom:

 

[Wavester]

This is good. You may need some more knives to fill it.

Put it in your living room with a tablecloth over it.

Do you have this? If so could you post a pic with your setup?

 

[Wavester]

Nice nwmetalbug! What did that run you?

This is what I use, comes with ball bearing slides and rubber drawer liners
