Title: Well, the time has come...
Post by: zrxoa1 on June 18, 2018, 09:33:31 PM
Something has to change. With the latest SAK acquisitions, my “SAK box” is now too full to close.

Hmmm, guess I need a bigger box!

Haha!!

I’ll have to lay them all out and snap a few pics later. Not that they beat most collections around here.  Just got big, fast, for what I’m used to.

You could make more room in the existing box by removing the SAKs in boxes and wrap them in paper towels instead. :D
Flatten the boxes gently and store them away somewhere else. SAK boxes flatten easily and regain their shape back well when you need them. Plus, you'll stop wearing the boxes out by opening and closing them so much.

Never thought of flattening them to save up space! Great tip!  :tu:

I took the advice and broke all the boxes down except the box the MT.O PX is in and the box my nylon pouch came in. Put all the little boxes in the pouch box.

Now they all fit AND the lid shuts!

I will start looking for a case that allows to hold them all while nicely displaying them.

Good work keeping it to a reasonable level :D

I remember the days when all my folding knives would fit in one small box  :whistle:

About 5 years ago...
