Two-Tier Wall-Mounted Kake Sword Stand
1xAre you looking for a way to turn your samurai swords into the centerpiece of a room while giving them a safe place to rest? This wooden wall-mounted stand in an elegant black finish is exactly what your collection needs. Both a long Katana and a shorter Wakizashi will find their place of honor here, allowing you to display a classic *Daisho* set. The central feature of the stand is a finely detailed samurai emblem depicting a warrior in full armor, adding an authentic touch of Japanese tradition to the piece. Thanks to the wall-mount design, you save shelf space and keep your weapons at a safe height, away from accidental damage. You will use this stand for the display of two Japanese swords. Installation is straightforward: the stand is mounted directly onto the wall (choose mounting hardware suitable for your wall type). Place the swords into the prepared hooks (cradles) so that their weight is evenly distributed. We recommend placing the swords with the edge (top of the scabbard) facing upwards, which is the traditional method that protects both the edge and the interior of the scabbard (*Saya*).

Historical Origin and Tradition
In Japan, a sword stand is called a Kake. Historically, it was not just a piece of furniture, but a ritual object. A samurai's swords were considered his soul, and their storage was subject to strict etiquette. If a sword is stored in a Kake with the hilt (Tsuka) to the left, it signals peace and trust toward a visitor, as the sword cannot be easily drawn with the right hand. This type of wall-mounted stand became particularly popular in modern times as collectors began to emphasize the aesthetic presentation of weapons as decorative elements in Eastern-inspired interiors.
Care and Safety Instructions
To maintain the stand's matte black appearance, wipe it regularly with a soft duster. Avoid using water or aggressive cleaners, which could damage the black wood stain. If dust settles on the emblem, clean it carefully with a dry, soft-bristled brush.
Important Warnings:
- The stand is intended exclusively for decorative purposes and the display of swords; never use it as a rack for heavy objects.
- During installation, ensure that wall plugs and screws are firmly anchored in a load-bearing wall to prevent the stand and your valuable swords from falling.
- When placing sharp Katanas, exercise extreme caution to avoid scratching the wooden hooks or injuring yourself.
We recommend purchasing cotton gloves for handling the swords to avoid leaving fingerprints on the blades or the black surface of the stand.
