I've started re-doing some of my displays lately for a number of reasons. Here are a few of them.

I love it when one shares their displays with us all.

That one is stamped,'' F.A.Bower '' and has a 10 blade. The one below it is stamped,'' G.C.Co. Italy.

I especially like the display of the large fixed blades.

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.

I enjoy seeing all of it!
(Though I would not know how to work in a clean and organized shop!)

Man who works on knives in a safari hat (last pic) is cool in my book.

Thank you Reverand but it won't stay that way very long.

Jamie that is a pith helmet issued by the U.S. Navy that I got back in the day. It was packed in some of my garage stuff and I just haven't figured out where to put it yet.

Those are great displays K7K! Did you make them or buy them, and if bought, where? In picture 1 could we please see and hear more about the all-metal knife below the small pistols, the one that has the larger pistol pointed right at it? Thx! 8)

I've posted pics of it here before but can't remember where. I'll get it out of the display & try to get some decent pics(hard to do with my phone camera).

I have a woodworking shop in one of my garage and the thing I make mostly is professional sawdust, I have a bunch of stuff hanging in there that is slowly finding its way to the Waste Management can. I look around my garage and think where did all this crap come from? I have keep stuff in there thinking one day I may need it. I’m changing my thinking lately by throwing stuff away.

I’m a member to another forum that caters to garage usage and tools and it has a thread after thread on repurpose stuff. I’m repurposed stuff to the garbage can. But the hat looks good on you
