That's awesome! I don't have anything like that, I just lean mine against my bookshelf Sad
I am probably just gonna get some nails and hang them up in my game room. (turn them on late night, get some awesome lighting lol)

Very nice!  I love the Initite V4 LE staff in VA!  That's a great addition to any collection!  The others are very nice as well, and the overall effect is stunning!

I soooooo need a man-cave to put my hilts back up on the wall....

 Very nice display!  What did you use to hang them?  You can barely see the blade supports.  Looks great!

Cheers 😁😁...
I basically turned a Covertec clip into a wall bracket, then used a cut down a picture hanger for the blade.

I'm going to merge this thread with the display one though, so they're all together.

Working on a nice display- so far just cutting and dry fitting the pieces before sanding and staining/painting. Hope you all dig it!

So, I needed an inexpensive, but not terrible looking display for my sabers. My house is very, very small, and it had to fit in a nook near my existing sword rack. I saw some super cheap small shelves on amazon, so I grabbed ‘em!



Three different sizes, and I picked the large and the small for the space allotted and hung them.



I figured this setup looked a bit cooler than just a flat surface, and the shotos could go on the upper deck. About two weeks later, after viewing some similar suggestions a couple forumites made, I found some individual broom and mop holders on Amazon. They were also super cheap and looked cool, so snag! We moved shops at work and there was an old coat hook laying around which was pine, and seemed like the proper substrate to support the mop holders. After pulling all the hooks, and cutting it to the proper length, I sprayed it with some .97 cent gloss black.



Many measurements and calculations were made before I layed out the final spacing for the blade holders.




You can see my layout lines for the mounts. It ended up not being an exact sequence due to the upturned edges of the shelves. I mounted the blade support where I though the middle of the blades would land so the various length blades would all fit. I’m thinking of adding some real short blades to the lineup at some point and I want them to fit if I use this display. Seems like it came out ok.





Thanks everyone!! US FO LIFE!!!
