How should I store my kitchen knives?

Kitchen knives should always be stored in a safe place to protect its edge and to avoid injury. 

In the home, kitchen knives can be stored in a knife block, a knife drawer tray within protective sleeves or on a magnetic knife rack which is wall mounted. 

A knife block provides easy access to your kitchen knives.  The size of blocks varies depending on how many kitchen knives you need to store.



Knife drawer trays are useful if you want to keep your worktops clear.  Always use protective sleeves on your kitchen knives when using a knife drawer tray.

Magnetic knife racks are wall mounted and provide easy access to your kitchen knives if you don’t have a lot of worktop space.  Always purchase a good quality magnetic knife rack with strong magnets to hold your kitchen knives securely in place.  Always ensure your kitchen knives are completely clean and dry when using a magnetic knife rack as grease can interfere with the magnet’s ability to hold your kitchen knives.
