How do you display your Randall knife collection? We see lots of individual knife pictures in here but rarely any displays of how we display our Randall knife collections in our homes. Surely all of you guys don't have them sitting in a safe 24/7 out of sight. Let us see those wall displays... shelf displays... whatever your style of displaying your collection is please let us see it.

I would start us off but I only have 4 Randall knives so far and my first display is only in the prototype stage with mostly stand ins being used for design purposes. I know some of you guys have amazing collections so please share those displays with us so we can become inspired too...

We put ours in zipped cases in a Big Liberty Safe, separate from the sheaths. Then we take turns getting our knives out, to spend quality time with them. So the only time we have displayed has been at The Blade Show.

This was one display I owned for a number of years.
The fold-out page from the 1971 Randall Knife Brochure.
All knives were from 1971 with Separate S on the Stainless knives and Delrin handles where Ivory appeared in the catalog.

WOW... just wow. Now that is what I call a display. I'm working on a two feet tall by 8 feet long wall display now and hope to have the prototype finished within a few months. Thanks for posting.

I have some on display in my office.
Most are stored in a safe where I built some drawers.
I can open a drawer and see the description and inventory number.

This display was built by the Randalls for a dealer that owned a sporting goods store.
It is 5 feet tall and he hung it on a wall and customers could pick what model they liked to order.
It was at the National Knife Museum after the Sporting Goods store closed.
They later sold it at auction to help finance the museum.
There are a lot of hidden Randall treasures that make an occasional appearance.

Thank you.
I did post the process a few years ago in a thread here.
I have the pictures on another older computer and will go see if I can get that powered up and post them again.
Might be tomorrow.
Time to go prepare a Valentine's feast for my favorite lady.

Here is a picture of the display that my husband displayed at Blade Show Atlanta in 2017...I think. The display was build by another member and knives in the display were my husband Wally's and the other fellow member. Not your typical display box but it was really cool.

I display as much as will fit; I love the knives too much to store them away unseen.

Mine stay in the safe but come out on maintenance days. Snowed in today here in Tennessee so it’s a good opportunity to get reacquainted with some of them.

That is a neat way of keeping up with the matching sheaths. I also plan to put tags on my pouches. Since I display all of my Randalls I keep the sheath in my pouches.

Mine stay in the safes. have been broken into twice. Same kids both times but I never got any thing back. Lost some really nice guns. Two of them new S&W 41 Kimber 22 rifle that had never been shot and a Sterling Worth Fox 20 gauge that belonged to my father. They even stole my golf car that was never recovered.

I certainly understand why many keep their collections in their safes but for me personally if I can't see them... I can't truly enjoy them. I just make sure I have multiple layers of security in place so robbing me will be quite an operation. If I were to leave on an extended vacation... yeah... they are going in the safe but otherwise I keep most of my stuff in a large walk in.

Here is the display above my desk at home. I change them out every once in a while. The rest stay locked up or on my belt.
