dagger storage

[Bob Rodgers]

Here is a drawer of 2nd luftwaffe's

I have two of these cabinets custom made for me.

Bob has created an ultimate safe storage environment here which is predicated upon the unique storage requirements in the North West.

I live it the South West and the requirements here are drastically different. Perhaps we can get a thread going on the unique requirements of the different geographical areas.

So you are a blades out man then eh Bob! What are the benefits of storing daggers out of their scabbards?..or if anyone is a blades in man,then why?

Btw,great storage!

Dave,

I just prefer to have them out of the scabbard.

The junk that is in the scabbard can cause problems with the blades.

There is always a chance of more runner marks or even scratching of the mottos. let alone damage to etching or personell dedications.

On top of that, i get a smile everytime I open the drawers which happens almost daily..

Looks like a 'smart' cabinet. Nice oak on the outside of the drawers and the inside appear to be made of materials that won't 'off gas'.

Bob showed the proper way to store daggers,now I'll show the cheaper route.

[Rich Yankowski]

Don't know if this wall above the storage shown above would be considered storage since it's really more of a display. Flag is a repro.

[Bob Rodgers]

Brian,

Yes they are made to resist any damage.

The outside wood is Solid Red Oak.

It took two guys and a hand cart to move them. If i have to guess they would be about 250 lbs.

I had them custom made , the size? 5 foot long , two foot deep and 4 foot high

[Bob Rodgers]

Anyone else?

[redcross]

as much as I like oak, the wood is acidic and can promote corrossion
