Here is my #2 attempt on making displays for my toys. I had this axe for years and some of you may recognize it. I got it long before Krag Axe website was ever up and this was one of his first models. I had him make this to my specs and I see that it's still popular today.

Your thoughts on the display and suggestions on the next one for a Rapier display, (ie) how to hang it with the basket hilt being so large.

Thanks for any advice.

I love the axe. I would have liked it with a longer handle, but the axe-head is great. Nice display also.

Gary you've inspired me. I have got too many weapons that are up on the wall with nails or not up at all. Mayhaps my next purchase should be some nicer display hardware. I had a viking spear that I meant to hang for years, and now I can't find the darn thing. :\

Tony,
My brother n law said the same thing.

Gavin,
go get a piece of wood and a good router for the edges and go for it. A little imagination goes a long way.

Nice looking axehead Gary. It should look good displayed along your sword display (which I thought looked great btw).
What are the stats on the axe? Is that Krag Axe site still around? I am not familiar with it.
