With 12 pockets in two sections, Mercer’s Single-Zip case holds a full culinary-school kit: knives, a steel, a peeler, a thermometer and small tools. One zipper runs around the case, so it opens flat like a book and closes securely.
At about 21 x 10 x 1 1/4 inches closed, it fits long knives and slips into a locker or a backpack. The extra pockets keep gadgets from rattling against blades.
Choosing a Case
For a larger collection, the Triple-Zip Knife Case adds two more compartments. A lighter option is the 7-Pocket Knife Roll.
