Post pictures if you'd like :thumbup:

I need ideas, looking for a BIG case or something. Post up your layout/knives crib. Post where you purchased from (if possible) thanks again guys.
 
In the pocket of my jeans of course....then I forget to take them out and in the washer they go. :eek:
 
I keep mine in the original boxes stacked in a large moving box with some desiccant since they sit in storage most of the year. Looks kind of like this, multi-tools on top and knives on bottom.

I keep my folders in a plain ol tool chest from Canadian Tire, or whatever the american version of Canadian Tire is(American Tire?). Here is an older shot of how I place them(I pretty much throw them in).

It works well, if you get one with deep drawers, you can make another level to double the knife space.
 
Craftsman tool chests. Bought a bunch when they were on sale with free shipping. Similar to these, I use two of the intermediate-chests with a chest on top:

I keep most knives in their original boxes in drawer, while knives in rotation in use are lie on my desk unorganized, what in where but everything in reach. My desk is mess but its way i can find everything.

So far on my desk I have Spyderco Caly 3, Buck Vantage Pro, Kershaw Ener-G II Case and Böker Sodbuster Jr's Cases's Peanut, Whanrcliffe Trapper, Texas Jack an Stockman and ZT 0500. All in daily rotation or weekly use / carry.
 
Best thing I ever saw was an old timber draftmans cabinet meant for blue prints employed by one of my best customers. It was almost an antique, had about ten draws and perfect for housing a collection.

I have my pocket knives in $6 parts bin from Harbor Freight, you can move the dividers around to fit pretty much any pocket knife.

Sorry, no pics of the knives in it, this is the pic from HF:

Nothing personal. :)

And I don't think that keeping knives in a cardboard box is such a great idea either. I had a dozen knives in a cardboard box once... The box was stolen from the cabin where I lived. Took a dozen years to find duplicate replacements, averaging one year per knife. :mad:

Sadly, everyone with valuable knives should consider a safe, valuable as in costing more than a day's pay.

Everyone should keep good records (receipts, photos, etc.) too in case of loss.
