I have two kitchen knifes I want to store in the drawer but their edges would be damaged by the other utensils in there. I found this model but it's way too thick and massive for my knifes so I decided to create my own.
One of the knifes I want to protect you can see in the picture.
I suggest you download the sample file, print it, and test if it fits your knife.
This model should be easily scalable length wise but the corner cutouts will stretch a bit, shouldn't have any negative effect though. But if you need longer/shorter or thicker versions, just leave a comment and I'll try to upload a modified version.
