I have the same knife chest as JPD1998, even down to the mirror, but stained in dark cherry. It came from Lowes and was $55 if I remember correctly, but that was about 15 years ago. It seems they get them every year during late Winter and place them among the tool boxes.
JPD ~ That's a very handsome chest you have there..... a line that I seldom utter to male persons.
Here's another one: I sure would love to see the complete contents of your drawers!
I was thinking more about the knife chest as I just moved it due to some remodeling we are doing. They are still available at Harbor Freight for $80, and do a good job as can been in the photo. Mine is not what I consider fine furniture, it is made of stained pine but is well assembled with no evidence of sloppy workmanship. I remember there was (is) an Amish company out of Ohio that made a variety of sizes and configurations in a variety of woods. They were more expensive, had great reviews from those that owned them, and seemed to be a good value for what they were. I can't say for sure as I never saw one in person and can't remember the name of the company, but would recommend doing a search for anyone in the market for a knife chest.
button_man - sorry to read of the theft. I certainly understand your motive to keep them out of sight. Hope it doesn't happen again - some collectors store their knives in safes.
