Explanation:

When storing knives it is important to do it in a safe way to avoid injuries. The positive ways to store knives include: store all knives in a drawer and store them in a knife block as the blades are inside something and they are not easy to reach which decreases the risk of an injury.

On the other side, the negative ways to store knives are using a magnetic knife holder, using hooks and hang them on the wall and using a knife rack as they can slip if they are not attached properly. Also, wrapping knives in a damp cloth is not safe because you can get cut when opening the cloth.
