Are there any non-edgy ways to display a sword (lemmygrad.ml)

Are there any non-edgy ways to display a wooden sword?

My dad died from COVID a few years back and I got a bunch of his stuff, in it was this wooden japanese sword thing, which looks kinda like this one. I think he was really into Kendo as a kid.

I don't want to get rid of it as it's one of the few things I have from him, but at the moment it's just sitting propped up in a corner of my home office. I'd like to put it on the wall or something, but also I don't want to be one of those guys who mounts a japanese sword on the wall as that veers into edgelord territory.

So, does anyone know of a non-edgy way of displaying a (wooden) sword?

You could try framing it, maybe with a picture of your dad doing kendo or just you two together. There are places that do custom framing and will put it all together ready to hang on your wall. The sentimental additions to the case the sword ends up in should take all the edginess away.
