I for one have never put my knives in my sock drawer. My knives have their own wooden machinists tool chest from harbor freight-- only like $80 bux

Re: Most Noble Order of the Sock Drawer
I keep mine frozen in carbonite and buried deep in an underground safe, completely sealed off from light, humidity and any hope of actually cutting anything. That is why I spend so much time on the forum, to live vicariously through you guys and hopefully gain enough knowledge to at least pretend to present myself as a knife user all while secretly hoarding up a large and valuable knife collection that I will someday liquidate in order to buy a private island where I will finally use and enjoy the one knife I kept for myself, a $2 Spyderco knockoff from the gas station. And that is how I plan to win the knife game.

I understand completely . Feeding and caring for my alligators in my moat is expensive. Heating the moat this time of year is astronomical and I don’t even want to talk about my Vet bills .bearfacedkiller wrote: ↑Tue Nov 23, 2021 6:27 amI keep mine frozen in carbonite and buried deep in an underground safe, completely sealed off from light, humidity and any hope of actually cutting anything.

Wow, you guys are geniuses. I'm glad we have members like you showing the way. Would post more, but I need to get back to digging my moat.
Re: Most Noble Order of the Sock Drawer
I would really implore you to try it for a trial period. Mine started off in the underwear drawer, but after testing this week I will say my eyes have been opened. They are quite protected in there and the socks do a great job holding back humidity from the non-stainless steels. If you drop one during the very rare removal while holding it over the drawer, no worries. The socks will soften the blow.Cowboyfromhell wrote: ↑Tue Nov 23, 2021 5:33 amI for one have never put my knives in my sock drawer.

I believe I was the first one to share my sock drawer photo... I'm not claiming anything, but I'd like to get membership number 11, please.

Dear Nobel Order, I did contribute to oceansidepatricks post in a hopefully and meaningful way. I will work on moving a knife or two in the sock drawer… they have been in the cigar box so long they tell me socks are a demotion.
… I really don’t know if I have what it takes for the sock drawer.

Re: Most Noble Order of the Sock Drawer
Just when I thought things were settling down , I find a booby trap in the sock drawer ! Those evil , sneaky, conniving, ruthless Drawer Elves are out to get me and take my knives . They work under the cover of darkness , stealthy experts creating havoc in your drawers . Beware they multiply during full moons . MG2
