Use plate holders
Here are some of my solutions for display.
For small daggers and knives, I've found that the racks intended for displaying collectible plates work pretty well. They have a slight angle and so they give better visibility to the knives on a shelf display. I also use clear single plate holders for some very narrow blades (not shown).
My keris are in traditional racks. I have one contemporary keris holder for my Bali keris that I like very much.
The cabinet containing the portion of my collection I have out for display is a curio cabinet with glass shelves and overhead lighting. It works great. I wish I had room in the house for two more
Swords are on top of bookcases in my home office and elsewhere in the house. (My kids refer to our house as "the armory"!)
Best regards
