My knife block is tucked into a corner of my kitchen away from little hands. Ideally though, it would be placed right in front of the bench top section used for preparing food to avoid having to turn/move around too much with a sharp object (especially if you have multiple kitchen users at the one time). For me, I do most of my chopping at the island bench, so it doesn't really work to have the knives located there. To help overcome this, I store them near the chopping boards so that they are easily gathered when needed.

This sounds amazing. I also wanted a similar rack for my Damascus kitchen knives to keep it safe and sharp. How much will it cost? Do you have any idea?

You can buy most magnetic strips from kitchen stores or even bigW, Kmart, Bunnings, make sure you get one that will hold your particular knives.

Hello El, & Max, my suggestion would be to keep such Knives safely in a drawer along with other Utensils in a place that is near to your prep area; where here they will also be safe &

stay clean. If you are concerned about exposed edges, you can also install a Drawer Knife Block timber Insert that covers the sharp edges, prevents them being damaged and arranges them in a way so they are also safe & easy to pick-up.

Hope this Helps, Malcolm.

Mine is attached to the timber side frame around my oven . I love it .
