Yes it's a Golok but not a Martindale... Is it a Martindale Golok? (I like it, also!) 
As far as I can tell it is identical to this (including the numbers on the starboard side) >>> 
Wikilink >>> Golok |

Not display really, but machinists chests have short drawers that are great for storing knives. Search e-bay for Gerstner, you can sometimes find decent deals –– lots of different sizes available: http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d196/Bladeswitcher/drawers1.jpg http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d196/Bladeswitcher/drawers2.jpg Great idea! I'm gonna start looking for one of these...................................

Great idea! I'm gonna start looking for one of these................................... Skip the Gerstner International series and hold out for a good buy on a USA made one. I've bought small, 7-drawer chests as cheap as $100. Union also made a good box. Again, ebay is a good place to look. Search for Gerstner or machinist chest. Be patient. You'll watch for a few weeks and everything will go high. Suddenly, everybody is asleep at the switch and there will be some deals. |

Something like this? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v238/w6f7/knives.jpg This is a cheapo bookcase, I switched out the back piece with some pegboard and covered it in felt. I have that same Bianchi Nighthawk survival knife! I love that thing! I actually did a table top review of it on youtube. http://youtu.be/rpsZE7a_yWQ |

| I don't have a use for displays because stuff is in specific places but the idea of an old bookcase or a cabinet with added felt backing on some good peg or hardboard is a good idea. Especially if you have good glass and a lock. This should be used for something that you no longer want to actually use. |

Most of my knives are expensive collectibles. So I keep them in a nylon knife soft case in my safe. But my EDC knives I keep in my drawer. I am not a fan of displaying knives or guns in my home.
The reasons are most people that ocme over would be like  WTF>?
I have young kids that could get into them and hurt themselves or damage the knives. I also don't want someone to see themm and steal them or tell someone about them and have them want to steal them. |

I keep mine in a couple dresser drawers, but I do drag them out from time to time for sheath maintenance and oiling.
I'll post pics, just because. Larger fixed blades: 
Smaller fixed blades: 
Swiss Army knives and multi-tools: 
One-hand opening folders: 
Traditional folders: 
My babies, my bushcraft/hiking knives: 
Thanks for looking! -Parke1 |

I mentioned my edc drawer in an earlier post, here it is. The knives kinda took over, I have to do a little rearranging. http://www.robbstop.com/images/edc4-21-11.jpg You know, I think you have too many EDC's. Send me those Hinderers for proper disposal. |
