I got sick of not having my big boy toys out for the past year, so over the last couple of weeks I set this up. Let me know what you think, any suggestions for other hanging methods or ways of organizing is appreciated. The wood will probably be painted at some time, I just had to get something going.

This will go beside the axes:

Contrasted on the opposite wall:

The machetes will probably go in the corner next to the more martial items:

Any thoughts?
 
I think that big hewer on the right looks out of place. I'd be happy to hang it on my wall, as I have a the perfect spot for it;)
That is a lot of cuttin stuff!

I have yet to meet a person worthy of wasting one of my collection on, and I have met some choice individuals in my life!

Sorry- Little Baby is right at home in my hand- by far that axe has done the most work of everything on that wall, and has perhaps out worked all of them combined (with possible exception of the ?limbing? Axe that is longer than it is, I gust got that one for $12, and it looks like it has been well used in its day!). I have used that hewing axe for everything, and gave myself periostitis scraping that Osage handle to fit. It made feather sticks, filleted fish, and chopped most of my firewood for the last 20 years.

And somebody might take offence to your suggestion:

I guess my Nordic heritage and wood burning upbringing gave me a love for sharp things! As a maker I feel that I should own as many examples of other items as possible, so I can compare/contrast what I like and dislike about different features!

Thanks for the comments all!
