Kitchen Knife Holders Keep Knives Sharp and Accessible
Kitchen knives are a chef’s best friend and, because they are expensive, require special care and attention. Knives left in drawers get dull from being rattled around and hog valuable drawer space. Kitchen knife holders keep knives sharp and fingers safe from blades. A variety of kitchen knife holders are available to fit your space and collection needs.
In-Drawer Knife Storage
For in-drawer knife storage, two options are available. Both are hardwood and keep knives stationary and blades protected and sharp. The 7-slot holder is great for smaller knife collections and the 14-slot is perfect for professional chefs. Made by Wusthof, you won’t find any better quality in-drawer knife holders and these are very affordable.
Under-Cabinet Knife Blocks
When space is an issue, under-cabinet knife blocks provide accessible storage in often-unused space right beneath your cabinet. This knife block has swing-out storage on an attractive maple block and comes in two different sizes to accommodate your collection. One is for small cabinets and the other fits standard ones. Heavy-duty hinges are angled, which makes for easy visibility and access.
Magnetic Knife Holders
Magnetic knife holders provide convenient, accessible storage on any free wall or cupboard and come in a variety of lengths. They provide the fastest access of any kitchen knife holders, as the blades and handles remain free and clear. We have several different models available. This one comes in a 10-inch and and 18.5-inch version. The 10-inch holder is nice because it fits on shallow, non-standard cabinets like those found in older houses. Installation is easy with the provided screws. I store my favorite, most-used knives on this and use a knife block for my specialty knives.
Be sure to check out our other kitchen knife holders on our website. We also carry a generous line of German Wusthof knives, the best available.
