Please share your Knife Display cabinets

[Jaszer13]

Hi All,

I have seen some people post some wicked cool storage/display setups. Would like to get a few more ideas for inspiration. Looking to add a display to my new kitchen. Many thanks in advance.

There was one posted that was truly spectacular. I can't seem to find it again. Looked like a wine chiller with a glass door and illuminated internally to highlight the stored knives.
Maybe someone can repost as it was worth checking out

Yeah it was like a gray wall mounted cabinet right? Can't seem to find it either.

It was a built-in cabinet below counter level

Ahh that's a different one. Here is the one I was talking about from @j22582536 . Would be cool to see that under counter one though.

 

[Corradobrit1]

I like that too, but those blades are packed awfully close together. Gotta assume thats a permanent display rather than working knives.

We frequent a small teishoku restaurant near the in-laws in Yokosuka.
They hold their knives in this wall cabinet:

Knives slide in and out through the key hole opening by the handles...

Found this gem from 2012 by @Mr.Magnus

Yeah this how I store my double bevel knives, all single bevels I store separately in a non-magnetic cabinet cuz the magnet is kinda strong and I don’t want the edge to be directly contacting the magnetic bar.

You made it yourself right?

A friend of mine knows someone who does custom cabinet, so I asked him to build it for me for a pretty reasonable price.

Yeah those are for display purpose I don’t recommend placing them that close to each other if you will be accessing them frequently though

Ooh great thread! Hopefully we can get some more pictures of @Mishmush 's masterpiece...

Here's one of my cousin's knife cases (he has 3 in his house), he collects mostly Brazilian bbq knives.

 

[AFKitchenknivesguy]

Wow, that puts my collection to shame.

 

[birdsfan]

I was gonna post the one I made, but after seeing these....I need to take my game up a level! Beautiful work!

Mine too. I don't even have a display cabinet.

 

[DitmasPork]

Another view with his kid for scale. Locks at bottom make them child-safe.

Here's a bit more content. Brothers Sushi in Encino, CA

and of course DPham's For[a]ged in Denver.

That's massive!

 

[DitmasPork]

Yeah, he definitely wants knives to be one of the focal points of his home.

I live in a typical NYC apartment, so no way in hell I'd have room for any sort of cabinet. I don't even have room for a rice cooker!

The very cool cow-hide gun cabinet could EASILY be converted into a knife cabinet to showcase prized gyutos.

What better way to display 'cow swords'?

Handle on the side probably means it can be used as a suitcase for traveling with the knives. Stylish, practical and versatile.

 

[AFKitchenknivesguy]

I'd just take the house instead.

Judging by the vault locks. This thing isn't going anywhere via that handle lol.

It's a luxury safe company. The one I posted, I think they start at $200k, perfect to store your bang-for-buck Mazakis.

This particular safe seems appropriate for Kamon 'denty' gyutos:
