Show me your display case!!!

#1

Post by PARATOM »

I'm looking at getting an acrylic display case to show off the spydies. I'm wondering what everyone else uses to display their collection. (I know some just keep them locked away, not on display)

Post pics of your display cases!!
Below is the link to the case I'm prob gonna buy...

Hear are the knives I use on my display board. I picked a nice piece of scrap wood, added some nails and hung it on the wall. Isn't it beautiful? :)

I really like the case you are looking at. I'm going to bid $125 on it in a couple of minutes. Thanks for the tip. :)

PS: Just kidding about the bid. :D

Jack, you are truly a gifted craftsman, in fact, the only issue I could find with your display piece is that it's quality and beauty seems to outshine and eclipse the very objects being displayed :D .

I know, I was hoping this picture would motivate Spyderco to make prettier knives. :rolleyes: :D

Those are some beautiful displays and collections. Mine almost looks small. :D again.

We would rather be the knife in your pocket, because is "works" better, than the knife in your showcase, because it "looks" better.
