A knife display stand. I forge it by hand in Groningen from a single bar of iron. Your knife rests on it by the handle, with the blade pointing out. The knife in the photos is not included. I forge each stand to order, so it can take a few days before I finish yours. The forged surface is left as it came off the anvil.
Care
Wipe with a dry cloth. A little oil keeps the iron from rusting.
