Are there any non-edgy ways to display a wooden sword?
My dad died from COVID a few years back and I got a bunch of his stuff, in it was this wooden japanese sword thing, which looks kinda like this one. I think he was really into Kendo as a kid.
I don’t want to get rid of it as it’s one of the few things I have from him, but at the moment it’s just sitting propped up in a corner of my home office. I’d like to put it on the wall or something, but also I don’t want to be one of those guys who mounts a japanese sword on the wall as that veers into edgelord territory.
So, does anyone know of a non-edgy way of displaying a (wooden) sword?
Do people really think a piece of athletic equipment is edgy? I trained in an armed Japanese style for many years up until the pandemic began. It’s just weird to think people might own these things hoping to look badass instead of to train with it - I thought the former preferred stainless steel swords shaped like early-aughts tribal tattoos or whatever
