Shoebox companies need to step their game up

@DuxLindy Год назад

ben should make a compartmentalized storage unit that resembles a shoebox

@edc4fun Год назад

@@DuxLindy good call

@zacinthewild Год назад

Love it!😁

@willeniumfalcon Год назад

I picked up the Elloven from Ikea after seeing Maurice's video. A little hack I did to help pad / keep things in place was to use a cork mat. Ikea sells the "susig", a cork desk mat for like $9. Just cut the mat to size and drop it in the shelf spaces.

@cc_likesknives Год назад

I actually got one of those Ikea storage things when I saw Maurice's video! The bottom of the drawer was too slick so I just cut some thin leather to fit the bottom of each section... works like a charm 😊

It is great! Let me know how you dig it!

@dominikhaberstock Год назад

That opening shot was really cool! It probably took a lot of work but absolutely worth it!

@BrewCityRider Год назад

Hey Zac...lots of good options there. I store my folders and other EDC gear in a wooden machinists tool box from Harbor Freight. Lots of good sized drawers to separate knives by type, i.e., one drawer is neck knives, one is small fixed blade belt knives, the two largest drawers hold all my normal folders, and the large top tray holds my daily items plus my edc pistols and holsters. For my large fixed blades and XL Cold Steel folders I utilize several drawers in my Milwaukee 46" tool cabinet/chest combo. This box has two full width drawers that work beautifully to store and display my large fixed blades.

@emesser7087 Год назад

Fun fact im cuttently building my own knife and edc storage to hang on the wall. And yesterday I was searching on RU-vid for a video with exactly that content. Thank you for your work and enthusiasm for the edc hobby. Much appreciate it. If my storage is done I'll send you a stroy I want to make wich shows what I des from beginning to hopefully final "product".

@zacinthewild Год назад

Thank you so much for tuning in🙏

@SturleyArt Год назад

An old woooden cigar box is a great solution, especially if it has attractive logos etc. Nice retro vibe. A bit of felt in the bottom helps with scratching and so they knives don't slip around.

@johnnyd667 Год назад

Love the Vault case. It even holds my ridiculously oversized Cold Steel EDC. However, I really think the Craftsman toolbox is in my future. My collection is spread over several rolls and cases. I’d like to have the majority of it in one place.

@eagles7235 Год назад

I have that same tool box, along with the rolling bottom. It’s a great system, just make sure to get stuff for each drawer to cover the metal bottom. Otherwise, it’s a 10/10!

@frankcostanzo8391 Год назад

I love the Vault case style too. Nalpak also sells inserts for other brands including other Pelican product lines, Apache cases available from Harbor Freight, Nanuk, and others. They're all very reasonably priced and just as robust as the Vault. I have an Apache 3800 and a Pelican 1120 with Nalpak inserts and I absolutely love both. The only drawback is that the vertical storage Nalpak insert like in the video doesn't easily fit super wide knives like the Spyderco Manix 2 and Manix 2 XL without some shoving and squeezing. I'm assuming it would similarly run into problems with other cleaver style knives like the Sheepdog. However, all that aside, Nalpaks have been a godsend for storing my collection.

@rhythmyth9704 Год назад

More than 36 spots populated, now that’s a collection that would justify a toolbox (I say this whilst I too have a empty toolbox ready to go without too much of the gear)

@jonathanwatson268 Год назад

I liked the Holmes and Hatfield display box but I couldn't justify the price so I started thinking about how I could make my own display. I got a small dresser with a three shelf top section and I use the bottom two shelves as my knife display with some 4 knife display holders that my dad was able to 3D print for me. It came out awesome!

@papik1965 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for your great review man 😊. I don’t have that many (yet) pocket knives in my collection, but the Ellovan looks great. Really appreciate your review.

@EDC_Soldier Год назад

The Craftsman toolbox was a game changer for me. Mines a bit older and with one less drawer, but my setup is very similar in how it's organized. Mine is slowly becoming covered with stickers too, like a visual history of my travels and interests.

@utubetjc Год назад

I like your solution. I have a modest collection of about two dozen knives and a three drawer Craftsman toolbox fits my style of thinking. Regards......Tom

@CruelWorldVids1 Год назад

Loving all the EDC content lately!

@timtitus2532 Год назад

I use a wooden toolbox, not as deep as yours, so I have my long knives going cross wise. Works pretty good, has a lift top and 8 drawers of various sizes, felt lined bottoms to the drawers keeps things quiet while opening. Reinforced with brass at the corners and a felt lined face board that covers the drawers when closed and doubles as a table top for sorting when open, kids and wife got it for me a couple years ago, holds nearly all my knives.

@ntme6506 Год назад

Thanks Zac, this is something I have been trying to think about. My wife does not like my current pocket dump and has been asking for me to figure something out. Knafs burrito grande, Ikea hack and craftsman tool box are the best for me I think.

@twiggywolfedc Год назад

I used to use an old dresser that i painted black. But really love using the harbor freight waterproof cases. The knaf knife storage and tool burrito both look awesome.

@ericdurham1280 Год назад

I've got the locking vault case in orange. I love the flexibility of what im able to carry. I get a lot of use out of the taredown section on the bottom, and it's TSA friendly!

@mhsvz6735 Год назад

Excellent, thank you! Craftsman tool chest for my money!

@ryanharnell9268 Год назад

Great Great video Zac . I'm heading to Ikea for the bedside table Elloven solution. The other options are stuck in my brain for the future. 👍🤟

@niklasbecher8968 Год назад

Similar to the KNAFS tool roll I use a Spyderco SpyderPac hanging on my closet door🙌🏻 It holds just enough knives and displays them well enough through the see through pockets. Also you can just roll it up and take it with you! Definetly works best for me, but I see the advantages of the other options as well👍🏻

@FlintandSteelSurvival Год назад

For EDC dumping I also recommend an Ikea product - the UPPDATERA silverware organizer. That's dropped in the top thin drawer of my Ikea dresser and all my EDC rotation gear goes in there with room on the side for my pew. Then back to Ikea my collection is in one of their glass display cases.

@nickmartino2839 Год назад

@zacinthewild Год назад

@jeffw4942 Год назад

Thanks for the video. This is one thing that drives me crazy. Where to put what. But still have easy edc access to it. Going to look at the Kalpak for my Apache case.

@olbubs Год назад

Love the video! I use a castle creek wooden box with drawers. It has large capacity and is a little bit more aesthetically pleasing for the nightstand than the toolbox approach.

@noonespecial9840 Год назад

Well thought out video. Good job fellers!

@Kilt_Camera_and_Carry Год назад

@zacinthewild Год назад

Yeeeessss!🤘

@jaychaos7851 Год назад

Also a big fan of the toolbox storage for EDC gear. Dedicate drawers for Knives, lights, Wallets and Sunglasses. I save the bottom drawer for old holsters and rotating magazines. Since the items are tools, why not a toolbox? I have the next size up for the power supply, and peg board options. Great video on some products I wasnt familiar with.

@sharonrookard4035 Год назад

Craftsmen tool cabinet is a great way to securely store your knives, Knafs big burrito would be my choice for travel. Great video as always.

@zacinthewild Год назад

Thanks!

@MatisseStLaurent Год назад

I remember the Craftsman from the deep dive video of your entire knife collection. It kinda makes sense because it has plenty of room, and I like the idea of having everything in one centralized location.

@Awesome_1789 Год назад

@FaustoGrajeda Год назад

I'm going with the craftsman toolbox. I'm also going to add some velcro to the bottom of the top lid (where you put those sticker eyes) to add some pouches to display more knives when in the open position.

@vincewalburn4506 Год назад

Completely agree with the toolbox storage. That's how I've done it for years.

@rockon609 Год назад

I have used container store kitchen knife organizers, with cork on bottom and in layers so you can leave your knives open. And/or cork rolls that I cut for the drawers so there's always a soft surface and they don't slide around.

@WheatCitySole Год назад

I have large ultra durable lockable containers for the collection as a whole, but I would like a convenient way to keep the things currently in rotation for quicker easier access. A wooden tray or something along those lines seems like a solid idea.

@jasonjavelin Год назад

Aw man this gives me so many ideas!!!

@duartduplessis1046 Год назад

I ended up using a tool drawer as well. Seems to be the best option for a lot of knives. But stil use a custom slotted knife butler for my top 5 knives in rotation that week

@MrLewisTan 7 месяцев назад

I'm new to collecting. Right now I use a pistol gunsafe and keep the knives in eyeglass bags. Those drawstring bags really hold the knives nicely.

@justgreg8270 Год назад

My go to is "old" wooden machinist chests, ive got the one harbor freight sells and have to say its well worth the money. You can snag one for about $60-80, and i think they look a touch nicer then the metal toolbox if you happen to have it in like an office or bedroom.

@TravisTaylor208 Год назад

How's the quality on the harbor freight one?

@justgreg8270 Год назад

@@TravisTaylor208 Much better then expected, drawers fit and finish is great locks work, only think i would say is maybe dont carry it by the handle if youve got it loaded down, kinda seems like that would be the one thing to fail

@chrisloehr6641 Год назад

I've been using one of these for over 10 years. Generaly referred to as a machinist tool box. It's been holding my knife collection and edc gear for the last year or so. Before that it held all my leather working tools. It's very decent quality, especially considering the price. It's survived several moves and even been sat on. The only thing to watch out for is that it doesn't have feet on the bottom which allows the screws on the bottom to come in contact with whatever you set it on. It will scratch wood surfaces, but little rubber feet are an easy addition.

Currently, I have stuff everywhere! HA! I've got most of my folders in a cheap vinyl knife roll. Holds like 50. Fixed blades and multi-tools go in an old wood gift box with a sliding lid. My "Church Knives are in a 10 slot silicon knife sock. that hangs in my closet. My True EDC are on my nightstand in a Teslyar (Found them on Etsy) organizer. Then my extra watches and few other odds and ends are on my dresser in a watch box with a small drawer under it. What I'm holding out for is an old wooden machinist tool chest.

@unfi6798 Год назад

Very well presented Zac. Impressive collection. Got a couple of Ben's burritos replacing our actual tool roll. After watching TM vid, we decided to make ourselves 2 of the Armory display box. One from driftwood we found along the coast & one from a fallen Gum Tree (eucalyptus). We get a lot of satisfaction out of our creation & save some cash as well so we can buy more knives.!! Of course we blame you & Ben for turning us into knife addicts. Cowabunga mate.! Greetings from Australia.

It also lets me switch up my knife carry daily in my pocket organizer. Its a really good solution for me, but I may check out that craftsman tool box for main storage. Looks like it's on sale for fathers day coming up....

So when I was helping my aunt pack as she was moving from down south to up north I came across an old jewelry cabinet. My aunt hadn't used it in years and offered it to me. My wife isn't a jewelry person, and neither am I, but I figured I could find a different use for it. I added chains to the ends, and a magnetic catch in 3 places and mounted it on my wall laying down, so the chains would keep it from opening all the way (like a drawbridge). I modified the inside and used the part where you would place rings as a built in flashlight holder. I added long coated coffee hooks on the back that securely hold my folding knives in place. The few fixed blades I have fit neatly on top of the box. It's divided in half, one side for my edc one side for my wife. Problem is we keep buying things, and I'm slowly running out of room.

@eriklambert3809 Год назад

When my wife wanted our house remodeled I said ok as long as we cut 12x12 out of the downstairs(still a 24x24 movie/game room) and make a hardened safe room. So I have one tool box stack, a Mac roll a round and 2 Knaack jobsite boxes(both on HD pedestals). The jobsite boxes were old ones from work. I refurbished them. I bought the stack at SAMs and are stainless. The Mac box was an old one I never used in my shop. It is now my zen room lol.

@tonyrome655 Год назад

The wood toolbox from Harbor Freight is a great option (although a little smaller then the craftsman toolbox).

@c.garison3770 Год назад

Ben has to quit making so many things that I like. The burrito is now on my list of things to get. Currently, DeWalt T-Stak (especially the 2 Drawer) has become my friend for storing EDC gear and knives. My stack of these drawers has a drawer for my EDC, another drawer for pre-2005 slip joints, another drawer for Swiss Army knives and multi tools, a couple of drawers for locking folders of all ages (including that 1985 Gerber Bolt Action with original sheath). It is good. Takes a little work to get right, but most of us that watch you videos are into makings things almost perfect into something that fits our life.

I have the holmes armory display case and you can gain extra storage space by placing knives on their spine. If you do that you can usually fit 2 knives in each slot
