Show me your knife racks!

Okey kkf. Im looking to make or buy a really cool knife rack. But im out of ideas. And I can't seem to find any cool ones online. So show me your knife rack or how you store your knives. Give me some inspiration please

There’s a few threads on knife racks floating around if you feel like searching.

I have a couple of these and pondering getting a third.

I don’t have any recent pictures I’ll post some when back at home

@enrico l pretty sure my western Black lotus will look really good on your rack

Here's one I made for our son. It has magnets on the front and back, and the back can take longer knives - about 12" blades

, (~ 150 cm).

Interesting so longer blades mount horizontal on the backside?

These traditional racks will always work

No - they also mount vertically. The base is almost 2" thick, so will hold a blade almost 2" longer.

Oooo! Where is the rack from, and also who made that gyuto on the right? Very nice!

The gyuto on the far right is a custom from Britton Steele, steeleworksknives on IG. He does fantastic work but I think his books are closed now. The billet is raindrop copper mai from Baker Forge.

The rack is from a Ukrainian artist who could definitely use some business right now with the war going on. She’s super nice and a pleasure to work with. Here’s my original thread on the rack (my smaller one) with a link and discount. My two racks are both custom sized and ran around $300 - $400 or thereabouts. Hit me up if you want measurements.

Here’s an IG post I made when I got my 2nd rack (the larger one in the photo above).

Noyer large walnut magnet. Much gentler than my old Messermeister Acacia rack which had violently strong magnets. Holds a lot of knives, as you can see by my crowded rack.

Here's my makeshift knifestand in cardboard! Works well enough until I build something slightly more elegant..

My two 30” custom live edge olive wood mag racks.

Really like my Piotr racks - leather coated so no scratches and the magnets are plenty strong. I have three

Love this one. But I can't justify the price

Agreed on the leather. For my wood racks I have a pice of leather behind each knife. I ordered some free leather samples from a fancy online furniture place, cut them to fit the knife profile, and double sided tape them to the rack. They are much more secure on the leather too.

My favorite rack will forever be Matteo’s duct taped phone books with like 50 knives stuffed into them. God I wish I could find a photo of that.

For the record, I have plans to construct a very nice rack and potentially more for sale. I expect to do this over the next 6 months.

What a tower. You just had to put the one saya-less knife at the top….
