In a safe ?? Display cases ?? Jewelery type boxes ?? How are they stored...wrapped or unwrapped ??...lubricated or unlubricated ?? Thanks...
 
Car,garage, shed, backpack/daypack, toolbox, pockets everywhere, bookshelf, boot, just so there's one handy wherever I happen to be.
 
Drawers, Between Mattress, under pillow, on the side of bed, in a safe, in the cars.....just about anywhere I could need one, no matter the situation (especially in the house, intruder wise).
 
Expensive folders in my dresser drawer. Small customs (up to 4" blade) in the same dresser. The particular drawer they are in is proportionate to their cost. More expensive knives go with softer clothing :)

I store them in their sheaths, even leather. I know this is supposed to be a bad thing, but I've been doing it for years with no sign of problems. I do take each knife out of its sheath at least once a month (if it doesn't get used during that time) and wipe it down with a dry clean cloth - Plenty of those in the very drawers in which they are stored... :D

Longer knives and less expensive folders in a cabinet in my office at home.
 
I keep mine in a cherrywood cigar humidor box. Except instead of a humidifier I have a dehumidifier.
 
Gerstner chest (find 'em in AG Russell catalog) for approximately 60-70 of my folders and a few of my Randalls...It sits nicely on top of a solid oak chest with lockable drawers that contains many of the larger pieces....oh, 40-50 of them....and then there are the ones I have displayed....oh, about 100 in shadow boxes.....of varying styles and shapes and designs....

Then there are the Henckels on the magnetic holder in the kitchen....the Pardue custom in my pocket....the big Gerber bowie affixed to the underside of the trunk of my car....the two in the leather "day-timer" lookalike that contains my Surefire and a Glock 30 that rests on the seat of the car....and, and, and, and.....:D :D :D :D
 
Two are always in my pockets. The rest are in a bag that you can attach to a bicycle seat. You know, the kind to hold tools, alan keys, and spare tires?
 
Excluding the one by my bed, the one in the car, and the normal two on my person, the rest are in safely in the safe.
 
I used my Robeson slipjoint to whittle a secret compartment in my chest cavity. They'll have to operate to get my knives!!!!
 
I put as many as I can in my front right pocket. everything else goes in a box on the highest shelf in my house.:D

Remember Pen, child proof the house when he starts walkin' he'll be lookin to see where dad hides the big boy knives.:D
 
A locked walnut & glass display case that I got from IKEA for $20. the rest are locked in a Pelican case or in my sock drawer,truck and pocket. Oh yeah, some on top of my dresser (EDC rotation knives).
