A device for holding planar implements, for example knives, has a body. The body has a portion extending horizontally outwardly from it, and defining a number of vertical slots. For each slot, there is a number of gripping elements, and a spring urging the grippinig elements into the slot, for grasping a planar implement or knife. Each gripping element can be generally channel-shaped and include flanges projecting through openings of a side wall of a slot. The body can be shaped to include an intermediate part spaced rearwardly from the portion and a lower, forwardly projecting lip. This ensures that handles of knives or other gripping elements are spaced from the intermediate part, to enable them to be readily grasped. The gripping elements define a tapered entry zone, so that a knife can be inserted simply by pushing it into a slot.
