The quality and craftsmanship is unmistakable. The case conveys attention to detail and great care. The one area of improvement, and the only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars, is the height of the pen rests on the top level, causing the pens to sit up too high and not allowing the lid to close. If I store them nib down, it works, but many of them are inked up so I don’t want to do that. Guys, redesign those rests to rise by ½” less, and it’d be perfect (and I would buy them as a replacement for the ones I have now).
This is my third Holme & Hadfield product, and once again, I’m really impressed. The Armory looks great, feels solid and well made, and the quality is exactly what I’ve come to expect from them. I’ve been happy with all three purchases, and this one definitely didn’t disappoint. Their customer service is also 5 stars.
What can I say, I absolutely love the workmanship and the ability to clearly see my watches. I’ve never seen such packaging from a manufacturer, superb packaging. Certainly ensures that the product arrives undamaged. Very happy with my purchase!
You guys got me hooked on your continued superb quality and workmanship since I first received my "Armada", then the latest coin chest. (Pic shown).
I also just received your newly released "The Pirate Life!"
Keep up the great work!

The quality is great and they fit perfectly with my original armadas. Installation was pretty easy. It was tough lining them up with the stickie pieces already installed. I had to do it a few times. I would also like to say that the new style partitions are a lot thicker and closer together. They barely fit any knives and I’ve had to remove almost all of them with is leaving my knives lose and at risk of scratching. I liked the original version much better.
The Riser-Collector is absolutely perfect. It gave me extra space for 10 more watches and was instantly full. Fully loaded the drawer opens and closes so smoothly. And the finish perfectly matches the original Collector my wife gave me. Get it!
I honestly Love everything about my new knife case and risers. My only disappointment was that when I received the plexiglass top the front bottom strip of the plexiglass was completely disconnected and I had to use epoxy to reconnect it. You would only notice it if I pointed it out.
I purchased this from Japan.
I was a little worried before it arrived because many overseas products I've bought have had poor packaging or inconsistent quality. However, this product exceeded my expectations. The quality is even better than many products made in Japan, and the packaging was so carefully done that it reminded me of how delicate computer equipment is protected during shipping. I was genuinely impressed.
I am also extremely satisfied with the display case itself. It is a beautifully crafted product.
Stationery has been very popular in Japan for quite some time, yet there are surprisingly few high-quality display cases available here. If your products became easier to purchase from Japan, I'm sure they would sell very well.
I have been waiting for this configuration - the ability to combine both knife and watch holders in the top display! I really love the build quality, and even through the price point is comparatively high, I know that I will have this for decades. It was worth the investment compared to the cheap Amazon alternatives. The only request is that H&H provide horizontal dividers that allow you to customize the compartments even more. I 3D printed some, but it would be awesome if I could have matching wood inserts (see video).
Love the Legacy and the addition of the riser. Would like to see the option to have the riser set up offered instead of the standard wooden posts. Better use of space and 6 more slots for watches. Overall, best product I have seen on the market.
I have the Original Armory, before the folding lid allowing me to display 7 knives. In fact, I have the Original Knife Deck that displayed 4 knives and stored some below. Out grew that pretty quick and now the wife rocks it.
Then after running out of room in the Armory, I found the pucks, which allows me to display 5 more knives for a total of 12. Couldn't be happier with the product, and the customer service is exceptional.
Probably going to have to upgrade soon to the new Armada. Sigh...
I love this product. You will as well. If you are a serious collector, then the investment is worth it. Keep the packaging and pass it down for generations to come. This display was built to last.
I am a big fan of the Knife display products sold. I had quickly run out of room and the risers were perfect solution. I originally ordered two and quickly ran out of the room in the original Armada and the two risers. I will be ordering the third riser. I also purchased three of the shadow boxes that you can hang on the wall or place on your desk. The quality is top notch. I would and have recommended this firm’s products to fellow the Collectors.
Sincerely,

I started collecting pens a few months ago and I purchased the Holme and Hadfield pen deck a couple of months ago. The pen deck holds 17 pens and unfortunately (actually fortunately), I now have way more than 17 pens. I have now purchased two “scribes” which are perfect for my growing collection. I am certain I will need one or two more “scribes” in the near future. Great product and it compliments the pen deck very well.
I did something a little different. Fits my casino chip collection perfectly but I change them out with challenge coins every so often. This vault is built and packaged incredibly
I had many watch cases throughout the years, but this is the nicest, biggest, Rich looking case I’ve ever had. It holds all my watches, plus some jewelry. I highly recommend this case. And on top of it all, it came quick and very secure. Plenty of foam in the box.
I ordered the Armada add on drawers (two of them) and I understand that some batches may different in color. However, these seem to be way off from their original walnut finish. The contrast is very noticeable. Every display you sell except for the watch holders I’ve literally ordered, all in walnut. They all match except for these add on drawers for the Armada.
Quality product. The packaging was so nice I can't get myself to throw it away. With the AC running and a 50% humidity in the house the humidor is holding 67% humidity with a 69% Bovida humidity pack. Thank you for providing this quality product.
Love the presentation, packing when shipped.
Watch Cases: This is a nice way to protect your watches from everyday wears to luxury pieces as well as store a few extra straps. (Protecting from scratches etc...) (Also, some of my Solar's have light to stay fully charged)
The Sun Deck: I keep my sunglasses in my office for when I'm ready to roll for the day. (Grab & Go)
Humidor: Always ready to kick back with friends and a stick. Torches and Cutters are in the drawers ready to light up.
This humidor was packed with care. My order arrived in a timely fashion and by following some basic instructions I was up and running. The humidity level is remaining stable. I have plenty of room for my initial stash of cigars. Using Boveda packets 72% level. The humidor seals are tight. A great humidor at a great price. Also I contacted customer service for a question I had. They got back to me very quickly. I am very pleased .
High quality and well made. Excellent customer service. Took care of a minor problem to my satisfaction. Fast shipping and very well packaged. Really looks good and holds quite a few knives in my collection.
