I did it point down so if I grabbed it and it slipped that I wouldn’t end up cut. My partner flipped them though and they’ll be handle down from now on.
Well, my thinking was that I am very clumsy, and if the knife slips out of my fingers when the edge is up that I might slice my hand open. But possibly it is more natural and easy to grab from the bottom and that will more than outweigh any extra safety from having the blade pointed down.

But now if your grip slips or something happens and they fall, they fall point down.
I guess ur partner knows whats right. But honestly whats the difference?
Keeping the weight to the bottom makes more sense, besides being way less awkward to grab.
And with point-down, when you grab a handle, your hand isn’t underneath a bunch of knife blades.

U didnt account for the possibility of knocking it off the rack and impaling somthing below it etc.
Its a real tough one this
Below the rack should be the counter. Not a long fall. Not like it’s mounted over the baby’s crib or something.
