Three-Tier Samurai Sword Table Stand "Daisho" - Black Solid Wood
Design and Construction
The stand is crafted from high-quality solid wood and finished with a deep black stain. Its construction is intended for placement on a flat surface—a table, chest of drawers, or shelf. The side panels are shaped into elegant curves and transition into stable feet at the bottom. The three tiers of notches (forks) are shaped to securely hold the sword scabbards. A distinctive feature is the lower crossbar with a decorative wave design, which gives the stand a dynamic look.
Although the original description mentioned wall mounting, based on a visual analysis of the footed construction, this is primarily a table stand that does not require drilling into the wall and allows you to move it freely.

Etiquette for Displaying Three Swords
If you own three swords, the traditional arrangement in the stand is as follows: the shortest knife, the Tanto, belongs at the very top. The middle tier is for the short sword, the Wakizashi, and the long sword, the Katana, goes on the lowest tier. This arrangement has both practical and symbolic significance—in the event of a sudden attack indoors (where a long sword is impractical), the short sword or dagger is most accessible. Don't forget that the edge should always face upwards to avoid dulling against the inside of the scabbard.
Stand Care
- Dust: Regularly wipe off dust with a dry soft cloth. The black surface is prone to showing dust particles, but with regular maintenance, it looks great.
- Stability: Place the stand on a firm and level surface where there is no risk of it tipping over due to drafts or accidental bumps.
- Moisture: Wood is a natural material; do not expose it to excessive moisture or a direct heat source (radiator) to prevent warping.
For a perfect presentation, I recommend complementing your collection with a traditional sword cleaning kit, which you can stylishly place next to the stand.
