This disply was the winner from my Riddick Knife Active Project.

I still have a bunch of the $10 wood display kits left and I'm sure Roman could provide the metal plaques if anyone is still looking for a way to display their knives.

 

[Jedi Conductor]

Those displays are nice guys. Never know what you'll find new. Newbie, didn't even know you get the knives. Thanks, now I have something else to aquire..

JC :lol

I believe the Knives Peace Maker is talking about are the inaccurate version sold with leather wrapped handles.

 

[SatSpeedster]

Here's mine,

A little expanding foam, some scrap sheet metal, and a large shadow box. The plaque is from the DVD cover. Enjoy.

Yeah, Ebay is flooded with 'em and they usually go for, like, $1 with $30 shipping. Here's a picture of one. They have leather grips which would make for easier removal if you have the utility knife replacement grips. BUT, the blades appear to be painted or powder coated black which would need removal... more work.

yea i odered those ones, i guess i prefer matte black blades to chrome ones but it sounds like these blades can be converted to accurate riddick blades. can someone explain how? also how i can get one of those cool plaques you guys are showin off . thanks

 

[allosaur176]

the handles are made from xacto utility knife handles.

i found a bunch at a local michaels just a few months back, were like 10 bucks each i think, then just put the knives in the handles, a little trimming on the insides of the handles, and the blades handle areas to fit the blades in the handles..... handles are chromed so need to be painted black after a little putty work, and your done, pretty easy really,

The utility knife handles that I have weren't chromed but were cheaply cast aluminum and just required a little scuffing before painting.

Peacemaker... The blades of the ones posted above aren't chromed either, it's just shiny stainless steel and can be easily dulled to appear as they did in the movie.

 

[PeaceMaker]

cool, so i ordered the black ones cus im low on cash. is there any chemicals that "melts away" paint?

also i think i found the handles. is this what you're talking about?
