A rotating stand solves the one irritation of a knife block: reaching across the blades you do not want to get to the one you do. Spin it and the knife you need comes to the front, handle out — safer as well as faster, particularly in a busy kitchen or a household where children are around. The stainless steel stand is heavy enough to stay put when a knife is drawn one-handed, which lightweight blocks are not. Eight pieces covers everyday food preparation, and keeping knives in a stand rather than a drawer protects the cutting edges from the contact that blunts them. Available in grey, black and coffee.

Buying guide
Insert knives spine first — sliding a blade in edge-down drags the cutting edge along the slot every single time, which is the fastest way to dull a good knife. Make sure knives are completely dry before storing them, since trapped moisture causes rust spots. Never put kitchen knives in a dishwasher; heat and detergent damage both edges and handles. Hone regularly with a steel and sharpen properly a few times a year — a sharp knife is safer than a blunt one because it goes where you aim it. Keep the stand away from the edge of a counter.
How it compares
Against a fixed block, a rotating stand brings each knife to the front handle-out rather than requiring you to reach across blades. Against a drawer, a stand protects edges and fingers. Against a magnetic strip, it needs no drilling and suits a rented kitchen.
