I used to save the boxes, but I felt pretty silly about saving them for user knives. Just a few months ago I finally decided to throw them all out.arjay18 wrote: I have a habit of throwing out the boxes of my users.

This case is 2 layers of pick-n-pluck with a smooth bottom layer and the eggcrate top. I carefully removed the top foam to define my areas, then pressed the knife into the bottom layer and broke away only what was needed to support the knife along it's length. If I went too far, I placed some of the extra foam into the bottom. Chuck's post made me remember to remind you, if you are keeping your boxes, you can save the extra removed foam in the Spydie boxes.arjay18 wrote:Thanks for the photo, I think your's have similar dimensions to the 1600. Did you put in some foam to make sure the top of the knives are sticking out? just curious.

I keep my collection in several different storage locations.
1. I've got a couple of small SpyderPaks that hold my Para2 collection and my assorted "classic" Spydies that don't get much carry time any more.
2. I bought an oak display cabinet for my Mules which hangs in the living room. I posted some photos of this earlier - but I'll try to get some updated shots this weekend - it has been rearranged a lot since then...
3. For the rest of my "loose" Spydies - they sit in a caddy at my desk, some in Spyderco pouches, some loose. I recently re-purposed a old Zero Halliburton case (used to store a medium format camera), replaced the foam, and will start using it to store my main user Spydies - similar to what Jon does with his Pelican case.
