Knife storage: show me your rack/stand/block!

[Salty dog]

I honestly can't remember what I've sold or to whom.

Since reducing to 3 knives only, my small knife rack is this:

A £20 lantern with about 900 skewers! It's 300mm internal height so it takes most blades including a Toyama 210 Nakiri in the middle.

It was a fun project

Just got my new stand in from BorkWood. I'm terrible at taking pictures and my 80s style counter tops don't help but the stand came out beautiful.

I'll try to post a pic from a image hosting site when I get home. That turned out tiny.

Oh my word! A lot of racks.
I keep most of them under my bed in their boxes.
The more frequently used ones are in a mushroom crate wih edge guard or saya.
Tojiro DP gyuto is in a small knifebag that cmes with me to every work place i go to.

Did you consider up high? I have a very long mag bar mounted almost at ceiling level... easy for me to get at it, but my kid (and wife :biggrin cannot!

What you see in the bottom of the picture are the fridge and a set of closet doors.

Salty I see you still own your Masamoto honyaki. I don't know why but I thought you sold it.

i asked him to sell it to me the moment he started posting again and was sadly told it had been gone long ago.

 

[bkultra]

Ok I thought that was the case... I just happened to see it in the photo he posted, never occurred to me that the picture might be old

Now only if that Masamoto honyaki Suji that he owned would show back up. That thing was crazy

 

[panda]

just get the sukenari honyaki suji and let me play with it for a bit, i will actually put it through some use this time.

The storage photo? I took that the day I posted it. I know there's a Masamoto in there but not sure if it's a KS or honyaki.
I miss that suji.

Yes this photo 3rd handle from the back (sitting on another knife)

 

[Salty dog]

Yeah, that's it but don't know the flavor.

Had to negotiate for new kitchen real estate for knives... Marko made this awesome vertical version, a bit complicate due to recessed backsplash and needed "slots" but does the job beautifully

Very cool stand, incredible knives.

I love the handle on the workhorse Kato.

 

[kevpenbanc]

This was from December.
I've added a few knives since then.

I still haven't come up with a solution to my knife storage dilemma! Moved into a new place though and the options Re endless.

In my small kitchen I don't have a rack or block—just keep a two gyutos, two petty knives, breadknife, cleaver and boning knife in the drawer. The rest live in the bedroom flat files until they're called upon.

 

[LifeByA1000Cuts]

Two $10 ish bamboo blocks (threw the bamboo skewer filling away), unholy amounts of balsa, and can't-be-bothered-with-the-lighting



Yes, some of the handles need a sanding...

I'd also love to see how you guys are storing them. Last week there was a leak from my laundry room which spread to the kitchen. It was pretty bad and the wood in 2 of the drawers that I keep knives in are still damp.. I was considering magnets but I don't really have a good wall for them I'm able to leave a few at work but it isn't ideal. For now most of them are sitting in my guest/spare bedroom...

Man that is a lot of steel. I'd recommend lightening the load a bit, happy to help you with your storage problem by taking a few of those off your hands if you need :biggrin:

 

[StonedEdge]

V647c...I'm guessing you like gyutos a little bit

LOL, this would never work in California. When the big one hits, the "death by a thousand cuts" cliche would have an entirely new meaning.

Three little boys:whistling: Use a drawer just for knives and lock it.

wow, that an awesome collection but I wouldnt want to go to the kitchen in case of a tremor or anything close to unexpected movement... yikes.... I have such a horrible collection, that im kinda embarassed....

 

[LifeByA1000Cuts]

@Hanmak17 this would make an interesting "catastrophe struck, even though he was well prepped" tombstone...

 

[DitmasPork]

Nice simple rack. What’s the knife on the left?
