Knife Rack Ideas? June 25, 2021, 10:29:13 am We have our knives stored alongside a utensil tray in one of the kitchen drawers. This solution ensures no flying knives but is hard on knife edges and occasionally fingers! I’ve seen knife magnets installed against the refrigerator (Mid Bath), and inside the under-sink door. What knife storage solutions have folks found that they really like?Thanks,Warren 1 Likes
Re: Knife Rack Ideas? Reply #1 – June 25, 2021, 10:49:28 am Warren, we just installed a small magnetic holder on the fridge wall, above the stove. Haven’t used it on a trip yet but the knives will only come out after we’re parked. 1 Likes
Re: Knife Rack Ideas? Reply #2 – June 25, 2021, 10:59:09 am I use a magnetic strip mounted to the left wall next to my stove in a 23.5 FL.It hold the knives very well, they don't ever fall off in transit. https://www.lazydazeowners.com/index.php?action=dlattach;sa=tmpattach;attach=post_tmp_4997_7d314650592cc038c68c549e51c55257;topic=36820 2 Likes

Re: Knife Rack Ideas? Reply #5 – June 25, 2021, 12:17:58 pm We use a magnetic knife rack with an added safety bar that prevents the knives from falling or being thrown forward in case of an accident. Bought the rack at Ikea and a 1' wide strip of aluminum a Lowes, for the safety barKnife rack | FlickrLarry 5 Likes
Re: Knife Rack Ideas? Reply #6 – June 25, 2021, 01:25:14 pm Well, we still keep ours in a drawer, but when moving they are sheathed in paper towel sleeves to keep from jostling the edges. Lo-tec, but works for us. — Jon&Loni 3 Likes
Re: Knife Rack Ideas? Reply #7 – June 25, 2021, 02:22:37 pm All of our longer blades are stored in the cupboard above the stove in cloth boxes. Easily accessible. The ladles are there too. Once we’ve reached our destination, many items are placed on the countertops.Safety first...projectiles are best left for the 4th of July. 🇺🇸Kent 2 Likes

Re: Knife Rack Ideas? Reply #10 – June 25, 2021, 07:07:12 pm Like others, I got a magnetic holder and put it on the wall behind the sink. After looking at it in the rear-view mirror for a while I got to thinking a sudden stop would let them move directly at the drivers seat.So I added a couple of BINDER POSTS , got a piece of stock aluminum and drilled a couple of holes so it covered the knives.Please overlook the less than stellar quality of the millwork. You might want to put a bit of loctite on the threads of the binder post. 2 Likes As an Amazon Associate Lazy Daze Owners' Group earns from qualifying purchases.

Re: Knife Rack Ideas? Reply #16 – July 13, 2021, 02:02:39 pm We have the camp co knife safe, I feel more comfortable with it than a magnetic strip, we travel a lot on gravel roads so I wanted knives secure 1 Likes
Re: Knife Rack Ideas? Reply #17 – August 12, 2021, 06:09:02 am I have used the magnetic bar for my knives AND we boondock mostly so we are on some rough roads (not with LD yet but Jayco now) and sometimes they shift a bit but never fall off or go flying. Donna (LD in my future) 1 Likes
