Edlund KR-700 Knife Rack – 8 Knife Wall-Mount Storage

The Edlund KR-700 is a wall-mounted knife rack designed for professional kitchen environments where safe knife storage, hygiene, and accessibility all matter. It holds eight chef's knives in an upright position, alongside two smaller knives, a sharpening steel, and scissors, keeping a full set of working blades organised and within easy reach during service.

The defining feature of the KR-700 is its V-slot insert, which grips each knife individually and holds it securely upright rather than allowing blades to rest loosely against one another. This reduces the risk of contact damage to knife edges and, equally importantly, reduces the risk of accidental cuts when reaching into the rack. The protective skirt around the blade area reinforces this, guarding both the knives and the operator.

From a hygiene standpoint, the rack is built with a stainless steel back and a removable insert that is dishwasher safe, which makes routine cleaning straightforward and supports compliance with food hygiene standards. The stainless steel construction is corrosion resistant and will not dull knife edges over time — a practical consideration in a kitchen where knives are expensive and need to stay sharp.

• V-slot insert prevents blade-on-blade contact during storage
• Protective skirt reduces risk of accidental cuts when retrieving knives
• Removable insert is dishwasher safe for straightforward sanitation
• Stainless steel construction will not corrode or dull knife edges
• NSF certified for use in commercial food service environments

The KR-700 is well suited to kitchens of most sizes — from small independent restaurants through to larger brigade kitchens — where a designated, hygienic home for the knife set is needed. It is particularly useful where counter space is at a premium and wall-mounted storage is the more practical option. For operations running multiple sections with their own dedicated knife sets, it is worth considering whether multiple units or a higher-capacity alternative would better suit the layout.
