Blade Storage Hack

Hi all -

I wanted you know what some of you may have come up with to keep your blades/tucks organized.

I am currently using a medium-small food storage container with a lid. It holds the blades, but they kind of float around loose inside.

Flambeau makes a line of flat clearish tackle boxes that are adjustable and constructed (partially) of an anti rust material - I use them for other stuff but they'd be ideal for blades. Just looked they are called "Tuff Tainers". Mine are made in the US too

Went with the cigar box idea. Total Wine in Norwalk, CT cut the price on their boxes to $1.99! Thanks, everybody! (About to buy more blades )
