Knife Storage

#1

Post by colu41 »

Where & How do you guys store your knives? I only have 3 Spydercos, not including one Manix2 FFG G10 DLC Blade on the way.. :D, so I just kind of have them in their boxes, (if I'm not carrying them) next to my gun stuff. But I have a feeling within the next year or so I'm going to have a hefty collection, so I'm just curious as how you guys store your knives, and still keep the wives happy.....

Hey colu,
Check out the Spyderpac.
They are available in two sizes, the one pictured being the large.
Very convenient and well made.
Later,
Don

I use the Knife Storage Bag by Kershaw. However, I have seen it sold under a number of other brands. It claims to have an 18 knife capacity, but depending on the size of the knives being stored, 8 or 10 knives seems to be a more realistic capacity. Also, unlike the Spyderco offering, it does not have clear windows that allow you to see easily see the knives being stored.

I picked up this from Home Depot. I filled the slots with the foam from the actual boxes that the knives came in. It works pretty well for me. However, if I ever manage to buy a house with some room you can bet that I'll be buying one of the new cases Spyderco makes shown in this years catalog.

I use one of these Plano tackle boxes that I got at Walmart. (Ignore any hints of off-brand knives that you see in there.)

All the ones I use I just throw in a box. All the safe queens stay in the original box and rot in the safe :D

Here you go:

It's apparently called the "Husky Mobile Pro Organizer with 18 Small Parts Drawer" just in case you need to search for it.

I use one of the aforementioned Spyderpacs. I have it mounted to the wall using the 3 D-rings it has, with a few of those 3M "Command damage-free" wall hooks. Not as elegant a solution as some, but it has been working well for me.

Vertically in a pelican case. I tear out the foam cubes for each new knife when it comes in.

Can you provide a link? I've checked the catalog and didn't find anything about cases.

I'm assuming s/he's talking about about this display case:

In a drawer in our bedroom, right next to my wife's knives. Keeps us both happy.

I've been using the Spyderco SpyderPac for my knife storage.
