Re: Knife displays
Excellent display Rev!
I can't think of a better way to display your knives than under glass so they can still be seen, plus the dust is easier to manage. At $6./case with each case housing approximately 20 knives, I'd need about $75. worth of cases to hold my collection, which is a heck of a lot less expensive than what I've had access to so far. Good luck with your better half!

Re: Knife displays
Love these displays. Some really great looking stuff! The wood burning is very eye catching, David.
I have been on a mission to organize recently & one of the goals is to snag some things I’ve gathered to make a few displays.
Here’s the latest ... I think I’m going to adjust it a bit & open the blades slightly on the 3 closed knives. have a few more I’ll try to post soon

Re: Knife displays
Well Reverand I would say you got a very good deal at the store and put it to very good use.
Those are some great scout knives and now they are wonderfully display. I understand the
comment about the wife all too well! Good luck.

Re: Knife displays
Thank you Bryan for your comment on the wood burning. That is a very nice display case, very appropriate for the quality of knives in it.....Bryan wrote: ↑Thu Jan 19, 2023 12:58 am Love these displays. Some really great looking stuff! The wood burning is very eye catching, David.

Re: Knife displays
Nice displays! I'm still cautiously optimistic that I'll find one that will work for me.

Re: Knife displays
Appreciate the comments on the Tidioute display. Here is a Case display with sale bills & a catalog from when you could buy dozens for a pretty descent price 
Also features the only tested era knives I own. Wish I coulda bought a few in 1927, I'd have hundreds!

Re: Knife displays
Wow. Those displays are pretty, and give give a lot of class! (Is it funny that I can recognize class, when I have been told I have none of my own?)
Anyway, I love the look. Keep 'em coming!

Re: Knife displays
Appreciate the comments on the displays I've shared thus far
Here is a display of all the yearly AAPK knives to date. I was missing a couple at one point in time, but was able to get a complete collection together. Got one from the kindness of Ray Roe (Paladin here on AAPK) for which I am eternally grateful

Re: Knife displays
Great displays Ray, David, Reverand and Bryan!
Ray, you sure have a lot of interesting old knives.
I have this one display. Has a sheet of 10 guage galvanized steel behind the cloth and the knives are held on by rare earth magnets.
I also have knives displayed on a shelf in my bookcase.

That is a very neat and well organized work area.dlr110 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 16, 2022 9:42 pm I'm back up and running in my knife work area in the garage. Been working on theses displays today.
Please hold the laughter to a minimum. The 1st one is two knives I bought on our trip to Alaska a couple of years ago. The 2nd one is a African dagger my daughter bought me when she was on the mission field in Ethiopia. Probably a tourist knife but it has precious meaning to me. And lastly my attempt at wood burning with the CASE logo. Crude but it will do for me and I plan to mount some CASE toothpicks and peanuts on it. Included are some pic's of my new knife work area.

Thanks Bryan, but, I didn't actually make that one myself. It was gifted to me by Charlie Campagna some years ago. I have been planning to make a few more, but, haven't gotten around to it yet.Bryan wrote: ↑Tue Feb 07, 2023 7:15 pmThat is exceptional, Dan!
