Knife Display Case

[Huntdad]

I have learned so much here and wanted to show what I made based on what I have seen on this forum.
i am proud to be a part of this community. I made a knife display case out of calico walnut. The back is double book matched and the sides are
all a waterfall. My wife picked out the hardware. The knives are held by magnets under leather. The wood is finished with Tung oil and orange oil.
I am designing another one now and would appreciate new ideas or improvements.

Ways to improve!? I'm still looking for my jaw on the floor! Kinda simple but absolutely stunning!

It may sound kitch, but somehow I think a veneer of stone on the back panel could be a nice nod to the hours spent sharpening and polishing, especially considering the reputation of the Shigefusa family for hand sharpening their blades.

Great job. You obviously know your way around a wood shop.
