I don't yet but I have plans on buying a vintage safe as a combination safe/furniture. They seem to weigh about 300 kilos so not something someone can walk away with although I'm sure they're not that secure.

Yes but...
You have to think about what problem you’re trying to solve. Break-in? Fire? I use mine for data backups more than anything valuable. So I bought something that is fire resistant and can be bolted in to the structure of the building. If it really is for documents then maybe just a briefcase type one, kept unlocked would be better value. Also, keypad or biometric rather than physical key, else anyone who wants to gain entry will just turn the house over looking for the key, on the assumption that you don’t take your safe keys out with you every time you leave the house.

Is anyone bothering with a safe? Having mislaid (ie put in a safe place) some important documents recently, I'd quite like one as the focal point for that sort of thing. Bonus, I can put watches in it when not wearing them.
What are the pros/cons? I assume if someone really wants to get in they'll just take the whole thing away.
