Abstract
There is provided a childproof knife support for supporting at least one knife having a blade. The knife support is provided with a frame having a hole extending therein for receiving the blade of the knife. The support is also provided with a clamp mounted in the hole and having first and second adjacent jaws for clamping the blade inside the frame once the blade is introduced in the hole. The support also has a spring for urging the second jaw against the first jaw to prevent a movement of the blade away from the hole by clamping the blade. The support also has a releasing mechanism preventing an action of the spring on the second jaw, thereby allowing the movement of the blade away from the hole.
