Like I said before, I'd happily display it here at home as is in the cleaned state.

Gene,
I think Gav & I are on the same page here...I think what you have done sounds good...just light polish & etch.
Here is something similar to what I think we are both suggesting...simple yet elegant...this way the focus is on the blade and nothing distracts from it.
