Natural Walnut 13-Drawer Pro Series Chest

The 2613-NW Pro Series Chest is the largest and most advanced chest handcrafted in the Gerstner Dayton, Ohio factory. Built for professionals and serious collectors who demand both capacity and presence, the Pro Series represents the highest level of Gerstner craftsmanship. With thirteen drawers and a full-width top compartment, the 2613 offers expansive, graduated storage for precision measuring tools, machinist instruments, knives, firearm accessories, specialty hand tools, and curated collections. The traditional Gerstner front lid secures all drawers when closed and stows neatly beneath the drawer stack when open, allowing unobstructed access to the interior. Constructed from American Black Walnut and finished without stain, this chest showcases the wood’s natural depth, contrast, and flowing grain character. Unlike furniture-grade walnut often stained for uniformity, Gerstner’s Natural Walnut highlights authentic tonal variation. Over time, walnut will gradually lighten, developing a distinguished patina unique to its environment and use. Exclusive to the 2613 is Gerstner’s trademarked Stop-Trac adjustable drawer system. This mechanism reduces accidental drawer removal while still allowing full removal when desired. Drawer tension can be adjusted to individual preference, providing added control during transport and daily use. One drawer includes an independent keyed lock, allowing secure storage of personal valuables while the remainder of the chest remains accessible. Each drawer is hand-fitted for smooth operation and precise alignment. More than 1,000 individual operations go into crafting every 2613 chest. Tongue-and-groove joinery reinforces structural integrity, while green felt-lined drawers protect contents from scratches and movement. As with all Gerstner wooden chests, the natural properties of the wood help absorb moisture, supporting rust prevention for stored metal tools. Designed to anchor a professional workshop or elevate a serious collection, the 2613-NW Pro Series Chest delivers enduring performance and unmistakable presence.
