Abstract
A cutting instrument rack hangs below a cabinet and above a counter so as to clear the space for performing useful tasks while facilitating access to various cutting instruments, such as knives and scissors. The edge of each cutting instrument is oriented away from a resting surface so as to reduce or avoid the dulling of the edge. The cutting instrument rack can be mounted to accommodate right-handed individuals. The same cutting instrument rack can be mounted to accommodate left-handed individuals by rotating the cutting instrument rack 180 degrees prior to mounting.
