so I bought a dry box and decided to make a knife rack to put in it its only semi finished im going to make a bigger one for the bottom level. I haven't even received the box yet so I cant post finished pics. but ill let you guys look at my work its kind of embarrising I did it basicly all by eye accept the blanks and I sanded and cut everything with just a hacksaw and some sandpaper I also used a few rasps and a powerdrill. this is my first real woodwork project and its far from perfect but I like it. to me It feels special just because I created it.

I took way more photos but they were **** quality and the last set of photos was taken with a better camera I just took quick pics on my phone for the other ones.
 
That handle sets it off perfectly!
I don't believe this is your first woodworking project.. it looks sturdy and strong, unlike anything i ever make when woodworking...

So whats on the cards next?
 
its a kaiden damascus blue 2 usuba blade and ebony and buffalo horn ferrule. its from chefs armoury

Alternating the knife handle /blades is a neat idea. I might of made it to fit one of those metal cases where you can handcuff if to your wrist for security.:laugh:
 
its a stroage case to keep knives at home in that arent in rotation i wont get moved for that 5 metre while knives are in it.
 
This is a really cool means of storage, great work man!
In the pics you have a single knife on the magnetic strip attached to the lid. Looks to be a carbon Damascus of sorts. What kind of knife is that (maker/steel)?
 
the knife on the rack is a 165 moritaka petty and the kuriochi came off after cutting hundreds of boxes of citrus.
 
Funny how I got a sudden urge to build something like this... even though I have no use for it at all! :D
