How Do You Display Your Knives?

I don't generally display my knives but I do store them in an oak Gerstner chest like the one below.

I don't generally "display" my knives. But when I went to see my pain clinic doc two wks ago, the nurse asked me to first empty my pockets. I did... one fixed blade...one Slysz Bowie folder...one Glock 43...
I kinda spooked her day... later got a phone call asking me to leave "those items" in the car on the next visit.
 
I have many displays in my domain for showcasing my knives. Most are behind some kind of glass casing to help protect them, and to give a classy presentation.
I do try to put some style into how they are placed within their displays, basically making framed art out of them.
There's a display case project that I'm currently working on, and it will try to incorporate something different from my other displays, keeping things interesting. When you have as many display cases as I have, it is easy to start becoming too bland with them. So, I try to keep my creative juices flowing, it being part of the pleasure I get out of my hobby in collecting :)
 
When i get home at night my knife goes next to my other edc knife on my dresser in a ocd "make them look pretty next to each other" fashion. The rest of the knives i don't carry are in my underwear drawer. With a three year old and new one 6 weeks away, i couldn't display my knives even if i wanted to lol!
