This item is advertised to be such a fancy display case but you have to attach the base that the saber, or sword sits on, which I understand because all items are different sizes and you need to be able to put the stands in the box where you want them to sit, but there are not instructions on how to do this, there are no screws or nails and the inside of the box is lined with velvet and the idea is it is for display, so I do not want to harm the lining to attach the stand the sword sits on and I am at a little bit of a loss. Not sure why this item which is advertised as such a nice display box does not even come with instructions? Disappointed.The whole case was fine however, the black background was thrown in box on top instead of in case. The background in case was red. So I had to clean off back and attach it myself. The rungs didn't come with anything to secure them inside so I had to get some 2-sided tape which wasn't the best choice. One of the rungs base was cracked. I emailed them requesting a replacement. Got no answer so after 5 days, emailed them again. Then they quickly responded that another was on it's way. I did receive it in 2 days..whew! This was to hols a saber as a graduation gift. All said, the wood is beautiful, and the Saber fit in nicely along with a 3"×5"personalized plaque I had made. It was packaged well with foam pieces that were easily repackaged.This item is just about perfect for me. I needed a display case that fit on the built in shelving in my gallery and this was just the right size. The locks are very simple, so if you want real protection you may want to invest in something a bit sturdier. (I bought it to display jewelry, so I was a bit leery) But they do lock, which is great. The packaging rubbed off a bit on the glass and I can't seem to get it off, but it's not very noticeable, and I don't mind it. Very good deal for the price. I recommend this item!Looks great for the cost.this box has a red liner which is for a Marine sword. we ordered a box for a Navy sword which would have a blue liner. however, the color works well with the decor of the room so we will keep the Marine sword boxExcellent value, great presentation. Made a wonderful gift for my grandson who wanted a sword like his father had had when he was a Marine officer.The case arrived quickly. The red felt background looks great in contrast to the black scabard. Mounting proved a little diffcult due to the attachment design. However, once installed it has become the focal point of the living room when guests arrive.The case well accomodates a Naval Officer's sword (circa 1991).Fast delivery, great product. This case looks great above my fireplace holding US Army officer sword replicas. I had no issues mounting or using this case. It comes with some really good saber holders as well. The locking mechanism is not a strong point but it may deter your 4 year old if they got near it. That's good enough for me.
