Looking for a small safe

Title pretty much says it all. I recently moved overseas and left my large Liberty gun safe in the States. I left all my guns in the States as well but brought a few knives and I've recently added a few more. I'd like to purchase a small (about 1 cubic foot) safe to keep my knives out of reach of my kids and neighbors. I would like more then a 'box with a lock,' so reasonably thick walls, fireproofing is nice, and the ability to bolt to the floor would be a good thing.
Lastly I need to find someone to ship it to a military APO, but that's workable. Thanks much.

Keep in mind, any safe that is lined with concrete has the potential to rust metal inside of it. Concrete is still hydrating (weeping and evaporating water) and when you seal up metal such as firearms and knives inside an enclosed container like a concrete lined safe you raise the possibility of rust. It turns a safe into a highly humid micro-climate regardless of what is going on outside the safe.

Many safes are lined with concrete because it is an inexpensive but effective way to protect paper and non-metal from theft and fire. Most reputable safe companies will say on the instructions "do not store firearms or metal inside".
 
I have a small combo only Sentry that I bought at Home Depot. I think it would meet all of your requirements. Never had any problems with it.
