Did some research. So far what I've found: 1. Paul Chen 2 Sword Stand ( $85 - $110 + s/h ): ![](http://images.auctionworks.com/hi/72/71622/pc1213.gif) 2. Cold Steel black Wood 3 Sword Display Stand ( $35+s/h ): ![](http://images.auctionworks.com/hi/72/71622/CSD88S.gif) 3. Custom Katana kake from Se Do Kai made by Stephen Cruise ( $65-$80- free s/h in US ): ![](http://sdksupplies.com/woodweapons/shirokake.jpg) Being new at this field I need your advice, which one to buy... Thank a lot for your help in advance ![:)](//storage.forums.net/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

$80 for a bit of wood is rediculous

Buy a $ 12 piece of wood and some screws, and make your own... my opinion

Mmm, katana kake. Tastes good with ice cream but has a rather sharp after-taste. ![:P](//storage.forums.net/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) Seriously tho.....I like the second one.

I made my own out of $5 worth of ply (11cm thick), some screws amd black matt spraypaint.
Cheap, easy, and quite attractive. I painted my own Kanji on the front in a red gloss ("Katana Kake."
Thanks, -Tajima

I wouldn't sully a fine katanakake like the ones Rick sells with a cheness for sure, good idea on the wait.
