safekeep
Hold for security
Safekeep is a back-formation from safekeeping, meaning to keep something secure or protected: I'll safekeep these documents for you.
The word is uncommon and sounds slightly awkward to many ears—most speakers prefer keep safe or hold onto instead.
When it does appear, it's often in legal or administrative contexts involving custody of valuables.
