That looks like a pretty good bag. Woodcraft also makes a similiar bag that you might want to check out on their web site that has plenty of pockets and plenty of storage room. You might want to give it a look also. Just go to their site and type in tool bag.

I have a similar tool bag as in you post, I have 2 ice cube trays inside. They are the large style cube tray (each cube is about 3" high) available at Walmart. Just stick each tool, knife gouge etc. into each section.

I have used a canvas "riggers bag" for years. It has pockets along the sides and ends and one large carrying compartment. I keep my sharp tools in plastic tackle box trays, taking only the ones I need for the carving I am doing. This leaves room for my carving apron and carving (usually sticking out the top).
