Here are a few pics I had taken during the kukri blade display project.
Notice how I had wrapped up the blade as to not booger it up while I did the work I was doing.
Also, the foam-board was not only used for the pics/word plaques, I also used some, (which I wrapped in vinyl), to be a spacer between the blade and the display's cloth background material. This idea was done by me to keep the blade somewhat more out and away from the display's cloth material, which would absorb the blade's oil and be stained by it. It also adds more depth to the overall look, imo.
The first picture below shows how I laid everthing in the case to see how I wanted it to be, then it was all taken out and the work began on installing everything.
