Where should knives be stored to prevent accidental cuts?

Knives should always be stored in a designated drawer or racks to prevent accidental cuts. Proper storage methods help to ensure that blades are protected, reduce the risk of injury when reaching for them, and keep the kitchen organized. When knives are stored on a countertop or in a sink, it increases the likelihood of someone inadvertently coming into contact with the sharp blades, leading to potential cuts. Storage in a shared toolbox can also be problematic, as it may lead to the blades becoming dull due to contact with other utensils, and further increases the risk of cuts when accessing the tools. Therefore, a designated drawer or rack specifically designed for knives is the safest approach.
