Joseph JosephDrawerStore Knife Organiser, holds up to 9 knives, Kitchen Organisation & Drawer Storage - Bamboo

I've had exactly the same Joseph Joseph knife tidy for several years and my only reason for purchasing this one was that my OH inadvertently placed an egg slicer in the kitchen drawer which normally is stored elsewhere, on top of the knife store causing the whole drawer to jam and it had to eventually be forced open, resulting in both the knife tidy and egg slicer to be completely damaged beyond repair hence purchasing this new knife tidy.I love kitchen utensils, especially kitchen knives as they can make cooking so much easier and this knife storage aid is a very practical way of storing them safely allowing easy and safe access to the desired knife.The knife tidy fits nicely into a regular kitchen drawer and holds up to 9 smaller knives in the top section and theoretically 9 in bottom section but I'd say that 9 would be a little on the crowded side with 9 large knives with thicker handles but fortunately I have only 5 large Victorinox kitchen knives so while it could take more, 5 is very practical and easily stored.Having had one of these for several years I can thoroughly recommend them and as soon as I damaged the old one, without hesitation I re-ordered a new one immediately so that speaks for itself.It's a well thought out and practical way of storing sharp knives in a drawer so buy with confidence.

This is a must for your kitchen drawers. Used to be a dangerous job rummaging through our utensil drawer, now all knives are together, nearly and safely stored. Bonus points for being able to see the handles! I have odd knives, no matching sets, but bear in mind if you have a matching set you either need to put them back in the same place every time or go through them all one by one. High quality and easy to clean (been ok in my dishwasher)

I like Joseph Joseph products as they are well designed and built, but they are also expensive, so I tend to only buy after much thought. The Drawstore, however, was one of those products that just seemed to be ideal and the reviews I read nearly all raved about them. In the past, I had one of the whole drawer plastic trays but these get tatty and don't seem to work that well for me.I have a lot of cutlery so purchased 2 and have found that I can put 1 row of knives and 2 rows of forks & spoons into each slot. This is enough for around 15 knives and 25-30 spoons. They have also meant I have gained half of my cutlery drawer back for those other 'odd' items like a bread knife, cheese knife, butter knives and baking palette knives, so another win there.There are a few downsides. The first is because I have a shallower drawer (actually it is the top edge of the worktop comes down into the drawer space more) and I found that if I used 2 rows of knives as I do forks and spoons, then they caught the top lip when I opened the drawer and stopped it opening properly. This is not a design fault of the tray but of the kitchen unit but is something to be aware of. The other is the little diagrams on the slots are hard to read and I am forever forgetting which is spoons and which is forks (the handles look the same). The final one is the cost. Each tray is around £15 usually, so getting the 2 has cost £30. As I said at the start, Joseph Joseph kit is expensive but well built. I wish I had spent the money sooner though as they have truly transformed my cutlery drawer and given me so much more space.There is a sharp knife version available too. I use a worktop knife store so haven't tried this, but design-wise, it is designed to match this tray, so will be worth looking at for those who keep sharp knives in a cutlery drawer - with an added benefit that the knives will last longer as they will be separated.

Overall, I like this as it stores the knives neatly in my drawer, however, you cannot store as many knives as there are slots due to the thickness of the knife base, so it’s a little misleading. Great that you can store both large and small kitchen knives together though.

Fits in drawer next to cutlery tray, pleased my draw now looks tidy

I'm not a fan of everything by Joseph Joseph like some, but these are genuinely ingenious and clever products. The knife store makes a great home for our newly bought carefully chosen knives, storing and protecting them safely neatly in the drawer - great if you are not a fan of knife blocks out on the counter like us. It feels made of good quality plastic and looks like will last. I do feel it is tad more expensive than it should be for what it is materiallly but there aren't really any alternatives if you want a well designed solution like this and we will probably be using it for years so feel its a good investment. We also got the compact cutlery organiser and it has retrieved so much more space in our cutlery drawer! There are cheaper Chinese made alternatives for this unlike the knife store on here, but I feel they're poor imitations and have lots of issues in terms of their design so on that basis feel it's worth going with the brand here.

Finally, can get rid of the knife block on my counter top. It fits great in my smaller drawer and holds all of my knives perfectly.

Good product but it could be a bit larger

Most of my knives fit and are easy to remove for use. Enough room in the drawer for my remaining knives that would not fit into the holder. . This was not a problem since they are seldom used and fit perfectly in the drawer’s remaining space.This will be so much easier to find the knife I need instead of searching through the trays I kept them in before purchasing this holder.

Well made. Looks good. No complaints.

My eating utensil drawer is fairly small, and this is an excellent product for storing all my spoons, knives, forks in a relatively small space. It would not be suitable for very shallow drawers, but is excellent in saving space in kitchen drawers of average height. The side of this gadget has indications into which slot the knives, spoons, forks should go, which is pretty helpful.
