Best Knife Plaque for the decriminating eyes?
I am looking for a wall hanging plaque with which to show case my Yarborough. Anyone out there with some interesting ideas? I found the attached pic of a great looking plaque online, but before I drop cash I am looking for more opinions on other designs to be proud of.

Stay in the family
Chris Reeve shows one on his site. Maybe Bill and Chris would sign it for you!

Contact CSM (ret) Wade Myers at Myers Woodworks. (719-332-6113)

I sent an inquiry yesterday and he responded with 24. He explained that he's out til mid Nov, but could add my order to his 'To Do List" if I don't mind the wait. He also offered a version with an inscribed plaque for 110.00 as opposed to the one I shared which runs 100.00.
I really like the look of this this one, and can see it hanging on my future Love Me wall for Santa to see when that fat bastard stops by this year.

Like many of us, I have a Fairbairn–Sykes blade that was given as a gift after I graduated the Q my first time around. I need to ask if he can frame one of those as well,,,,,

The center of the plaque actually has a magnet worked into it to hold the blade secure. Very happy camper I am.
