Top - Spartan St.
Mid - Plus Scale Pl.
Bottom - some of the heavy stuff

I think El Corkscrew needs to get a new display in the works... something "real nice"

I like this. It's simple but elegant!

I have my collection in a drawer divider. Nothing fancy, I'll make a photo when I get home.

I have one SAK always on display, my trusty Handyman:

Thank you, my single barrel friend. But with a growing pile of alox, I need a display that supports the key ring-disabled.  Awl that pressure is building up, it's only fair.

My collection of SAKs sharing their 'display' with other knives.
I'm working on a batter rack/case/something for my SAKs. I'd like to hang them when possible, but also need to store the boxes. Maybe even store other knives.

This is it for now.



A couple of folders, (r)Emersons, Spyderco, Böker+
One lost Wenger, boxless SAKs, smaller SAKs on the right with a lone Leatherman.
Fixed blades; Mora FireKnife and Compagnion MG and an ESEE Izula.
At the back, tucked between the SAKs an Opinel and a Go-Tube.
The SAKs are roughly sorted by size; 111mm. 91/84mm and the smaller 74/54mm.

Is there anyone else out there with a "MacGyver section" in your display?  You know, SAKs/models you can date between '85-91 that Mac used in episodes...

My MacGyver knives are:
Spartan/Standard/Tourist
Tinker/Tinker Small
Climber
Camper
Executive
Huntsman
Sportsman
Wenger Commander

 Yes, I'm  big Macgyver nerd, probably seen every single episode at least 5 times.  :cheers:

Went out today and bought myself some cheapo smartphone/tablet stands.
You know those ones that flip open into a V shape with rubberized ends? Those!

Now my toys are out of their sheaths, with the acompaning sheath in the triangle formed by the tool inside the holder.

I suppose that I am not alone in not displaying my SAKs in a case or shelf.  The closest that I come is having some close at hand.  At the moment, I have a Swiss Champ and an Explorer close at hand on an end table plus a Cadet and two other Explorers in cases on a shelf within reach.

Mine is bought second hand and therefore quite old... :(
Was a fun read but when they're describing "innovative new knives" that were released over 10 years ago, I'm quite "meh :shrug:"

The knife display became too overcrowded, so I took over the shelf below it  :whistle:



This is a temporary solution, until the customized display for this shelf is ready (it's going to be like the one above it).

Yup, it's about all. No hidden stashes :salute:
There are a couple of classics lying around the house, but those aren't in the display.

Well, there also are some more soldiers and SI's, but those are the ones that are for sale. Those also aren't displayed :)

I made an executive decision and decided to scrap an old executive to use as parts for the display.  Using these very crude means this final rivet is really giving it his awl.
