Magnetic oak sword stand
Give your favourite sword a place where its blade and decorated hilt can stand out. This magnetic oak sword stand presents your weapon upright with its point down. Honey-coloured wood with natural grain and a moulded base provide a discreet setting for your collection, while the narrow support leaves the front of the blade clearly visible. Place it on a firm sideboard, table or another suitable surface without drilling into a wall. Intended for displaying Marto swords, it offers a simple presentation. Before use, check that your blade sits against the magnets and the complete stand remains stable. Further product information ...

Magnetic oak sword stand for upright display
Wooden base and magnetic support
The stand consists of a rectangular oak base with moulded edges and a narrow, slightly inclined wooden support. Its simple design highlights the wood grain and keeps attention on the displayed weapon. Magnets in the upper section of the support hold the flat of the blade.
The sword is displayed with its grip upwards and its point resting on the base at the foot of the support. The blade sits against the support and magnets. Magnetic retention does not replace a stability check. Suitability also depends on the dimensions, weight and balance of the individual sword.

How to position your sword
- Place the stand on a level, firm surface, well away from its edge.
- Check that there is sufficient clearance above it for the whole sword and its safe removal.
- Hold the sword by its grip and carefully rest the point on the base at the foot of the support.
- Bring the flat of the blade against the magnets while continuing to hold the weapon.
- Release it only after checking that it does not slip and the base neither tilts nor tips over.
If the magnets do not attract the blade or the sword cannot sit securely, do not use this stand for it. To remove the sword, take a firm hold of its grip, carefully separate the blade from the magnets and then lift the point off the base. Always move the stand with the sword removed.
Historical context of sword display
During the Middle Ages, a scabbard protected the blade and allowed a sword to be carried safely. Decorated hilts could also express their owner’s status and taste. This magnetic stand is a modern collector’s accessory that lets you appreciate the blade and hilt together. It is not a reproduction of a particular historical stand.
Care and safety
- Wipe the wood with a soft, dry cloth. Dry any moisture immediately.
- Do not soak the stand. Protect it from prolonged direct sunlight and heat from radiators or fireplaces.
- Avoid abrasive cleaning products and solvents.
- Keep the contact surfaces clean so trapped particles cannot scratch the blade.
- Regularly check that the support and magnets remain firmly seated.
- Do not pull the sword away with a sudden jerk. Keep clear of the edge and point when handling it.
- Keep the displayed weapon out of reach of children and pets, and away from places where it could be knocked. Tipping can cause injury and damage the sword.
Recommended accessories
We recommend a soft dusting cloth and a blade care product suitable for your sword’s material and finish. A period-appropriate scabbard and belt with sword suspension also complement a collection of European swords from the 14th–16th centuries and can be displayed alongside the stand.
