What if you RAID01 it, so you have four safety deposit boxes, two with the first half of your password, two with the second half of your password? Then no snoop at a particular bank would be able to get your password, but also if one or two go missing, the password won't be lost. And you just check all four boxes once or twice a year to make sure everything is good.

Better do Shamir's Secret Sharing instead, set threshold to 2/4, and regenerate all parts if any part goes missing.
