Knife case

[Savagewolfrm]

Hi Guys
I wonder if anyone has any ideas or can recommend a case etc to store knives in.

I have a collection of woodlore clones and a few other sheath knives and a couple of neck knives and was looking at storing them in a foam case for protection.

has anyone else done this or am i just being fussy.

as usual any help is always appreciatted

Max P ones are great, and I put my expensive knives in these and use them when taking them on exped abroad. Heinnies do their own less expensive ones in a few sizes, but they aren't in stock at the moment.

is it for storeage in a draw or do you want them displayed so you can see them ?

basically for storage and safety away from little prying hands. i was looking at a camera case type thing with foam insets and also to carry out locked in boot of car if they need to be moved

i tend to keep most stuff in a cheap toolboxes that look with padlocks so that my daughter cant get hold of it, but i have some stuff in a case i randomly acquired when me and a neighbour switched flats shortly before he did a bunk owing my grandad a lot of rent, i lined that with some wood and made a removable tray to give me two layers for my air pistols and more sentimental knives

if you want something a bit more presentable though for a collection, you could look for a cheap mechanics toolbox, plenty of space, but without taking up loads of space, there pretty much always lockable, if you get hold of some 1 inch foam you can cut out your own drawer tidies, so everythings nicely presented, and i personally love the organisation they offer, doing a quick search on ebay i found this, but if you look around you could find loads of varieties to suit your needs or budget

EDIT

took to long to type reply and missed those last two posts, but +1 what robbi said, though if you find a smaller toolbox like a 4 or 5 drawer topbox, they are quite portable, should you need to move them to your boot or whatever, the boxes them selves are quite light until they get loaded with lots of heavy tools

Go to Jessops or a camera shop and buy one of their padded lockable cases. Dead cheap and you can alter the foam inserts to fit whatever you want.
