I like mine
Had the tacklesafe, rigsafe, Trakker pva pouch before hand and now just have the Korda box. Ok you can only squeeze 8-10 rigs in there but I only use 2-3 different rigs so I have 3 of each tied up ready as spares then just tie new ones as I use them.
I've just ordered the bigger compact case for it so I can get my pva bits in there with everything else.
End of the day it's a tacklebox, nothing groundbreaking but it does the job for me

I like playing about and making/inventing new rigs up on the bank, so I carry every sort of hook, hooklink, leadclip and every other bib and bob that I can lay my hands on; if I like the look of them. But I always thought the Fox boxes were a con. I have 2 chub boxes that hold everything you can reasonably imagine, they've lasted me years, and the pair of them cost less than 40 quid.

Can anyone who's bought oneput up the dimensions and weight of the empty box?
I rely on mail order as nowhere local to see one and handle it before possibly buying and can't see any dimension or weight info online.

Had a look at one in AD the other week. Was really disappointed felt horrible. Really wanted one until then. Will stick to my 12 year old chin one.

I thought the plastic was to stiff, felt brittle, can't see it'll last long.

This is what I am trying to decide. I have the tacklesafe with the normal bag and just about get everything in it. Is the new tacklebox really worth the upgrade? do you get a lot more space to justify it?

Yeah you get more space and now I have bought the bag to fit my jag sharpener kit in and hooklinks the box is spot on.I don't feel like I have got to play tetris to fit by bits and bobs in it like I did with the tacklesafe

I've had both, and the box has room for hooklinks etc that the tackle safe doesn't. That's the main plus for me, I found with the tackle safe I had all my bits and pieces, but my hooklinks and hooks were all just shoved in the compaq on top, whereas now I've got everything in one neat box. It's definitely a great bit of kit, if not a bit overpriced for what is essentially a plastic box with a couple of magnets

Any one know if ridgemonkey hooks fit the same as the kamakuras? Know they have a similar package but not sure if they are the same size. Cheers Ian
