[Woodcarver] Tool Storage

I have been carving for about 14 years and I still am not happy with the way I store and transport my carving tools.  So I am asking the list members to let me know of the different methods that each of you might be using for storing and/or transporting carving tools.  I would like to find a method to easily transport a variety of palm tools, knives, and a few long handled tools that will keep them sharp but readily available.  I am using a large tool box at this time but the tools are loose and get dull from banging around in the box.  Any suggestions will be very much appreciated.

Thanks

For the last 15 years I've been using a PLANO  fish tackle box and works very well 
Buy some clear plastic tubing if dif sizes and cut them to lenght of each tool 
You cant miss 
And remember you usually bring to many tools 
Some years ago we had a sseminar at my place with Harold Enlow 
and folks came in with one or two BIG boxes and some on wheels 
Harold walked in with a clear ziplock bag with 2 knives and 2 chisles and thats all he neede all week
