Knife Display Case

[boykinlp]

I soon will have 4 knives that I want to display (protect from dust ). I am thinking a cheap wooden box with glass top that can be hung on the wall. Anybody have a source that they use? Thanks.

You could try a Ryker box. Available at laboratory supply houses ot antique stores (where I got mine) I use them for fossils & arrowheads.

Try Navy Arms, sometimes Numrich will have something.

I made knife stands out of antler and polished stone for my Randalls and Stapels knives.

You might try ebay. I see some real nice wooden display cases for knives at times.

Most Craft Stores and Picture Frame Shops will sell shadow boxes that you can use. They usually are available in many sizes, and in a Frame Shop you are able to customize it along with any color and texture backing board.

Are the Bucks at the top and bottom of this display Nemos, or Model 124's? Most of he 124's I've seen had laminated wooden handles, but I think early ones looked about like the Nemo dive knife.

I use customdisplays for my coin displays.

They have boves for everything, including knoves.

Go to Woodnet.net. See: WoodNet Forums: Viewing forum: Woodworking

Register. Then describe the case you want built. And ask if anyone wants to make this for you and would they please e-mail you a quote. Give the dimensions, and tell them you are willing to discuss the materials and construction with whoever responds.

This is the best way to get a high quality case at a reasonable price. Most of the members are highly skilled craftsmen. Look at some of the posted images to be confident.
