Your Spyderco Drawer - Show & Tell
Re: Your Spyderco Drawer - Show & Tell
Knife drawer in my toolbox. Trying to control knife impulses and the need to buy a workbench with wider drawers.
Re: Your Spyderco Drawer - Show & Tell
I don’t have a drawer, but I do have a cabinet. I also like to use the clear plastic Plano and Ozark Trail cases because they are have adjustable compartments that can accommodate a lot of different size knives.
ETA pic of cases open. Most of the boxes are empty.

Re: Your Spyderco Drawer - Show & Tell
Yes, I have all of my boxes (except for the few used knives I bought without boxes). They take up some space, but I enjoy having them, and so I keep them.Doeswhateveraspidercan wrote: ↑Thu Apr 18, 2019 3:02 pmAfter seeing this I am not feeling so bad about all my purchases now. Did you guys keep your boxes? I do. Will pull some from the safety deposit box and post some pics later.

Re: Your Spyderco Drawer - Show & Tell
I've kept about half of my boxes.
Fixed blades are a lot of fun. Designers can do things with a fixed blade you can't with folding knives, and the handles are a lot more comfortable.

Re: Your Spyderco Drawer - Show & Tell
I'd say about 90% of my knives came with their box and I've kept them all.Doeswhateveraspidercan wrote: ↑Thu Apr 18, 2019 3:02 pmAfter seeing this I am not feeling so bad about all my purchases now.

They're currently in storage, but I go out there every 3-4 months or so to add boxes of new purchases :p

Re: Your Spyderco Drawer - Show & Tell
I respect that wish I had that kind of self control, find it very hard to part with my Spydies...
Re: Your Spyderco Drawer - Show & Tell
Ahhh ... the upper drawers of a tool chest ... great idea ... why didn't I think of that! And, you can even lock the unwanted out while locking down the blades that grow legs and wander off. If I had thought of this, my sockets and box ends would have been gone long ago...

Re: Your Spyderco Drawer - Show & Tell
WOW!!!! Lots of great stuff in them drawers!Capt'n Boatsalot wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2019 9:23 pmHere's most of my drawers! :)
My small clip less knives. These are carried daily as I am in slacks at work. DF2 is my favorite. But I do enjoy the others greatly as well, particularly the Chaparral.
Medium knives, Delicas and Calys (mostly). Delicas were my first Spydie and still have a definite soft spot for me. But these aren't carried as often.
Remaining FRN knives. Like the Endura more than I thought I would. And really like the Hungarian.
Most of my Framelocks. Favorites are the Techno and the Mantra.
Mixed drawer. Enjoy the P3s and the original GB. Natives just don't fit my hand really well, so I should probably get rid of those.
Overall, the PM2 and Military is my favorite model. Only one missing here is my BHQ M4 model which is getting ready for a dunk in the Rit Dye tank. Favorite PM2 is the Rex45. Favorite Military is the 52100, or the 204P, or the Ti/CF S90V... At this point, I don't prefer the Manix 2 XL or the K2. Should probably get to selling those.
Fixed blades! Love 'em.

Re: Your Spyderco Drawer - Show & Tell
I've been there and went with completely lockable cases which solved that challenge. I do think you'll end up needing more than one case though.
Re: Your Spyderco Drawer - Show & Tell
And it can be bolted down. I have one upper chest just for my edc. Wallets, watches, multi-tools, flashlights, chargers, cables, knives, keys, etc. I have one drawer for my carry firearm, magazines, and various holsters. I stop by my box on the way out the door and grab everything I need for the day, then lock it.cycleguy wrote: ↑Sun Apr 21, 2019 6:41 amAhhh ... the upper drawers of a tool chest ... great idea ... why didn't I think of that!

For some reason my wife is blind to the storage potential of toolboxes. She knows they're there, she just hasn't figure out how to displace my stuff and store her clothing in them. Because of this revelation, I store all my stuff in toolboxes. :D
