Sophie Brooks – Chef Tools Expert View Profile →
- Pros: The 34-slot capacity is massive, and the separate accessory pouch is genuinely useful.
- Cons: Its size, when full, might be slight overkill for a chef with a smaller kit.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
Northern Bites Catering, a bustling event caterer based in Leeds, needed to streamline how their head chef transported his extensive knife collection to and from venues. Their existing mix of smaller rolls was inefficient and offered poor protection.
"Having one bag for everything has made a huge difference. I can see all my tools at a glance, and I know they're secure during transit. No more rummaging around in three different rolls just to find my filleting knife. It's simply more professional and organised."
Ben Carter – Head Chef
The move to the Dick DL381 roll resulted in a measurable outcome: prep and setup time at events was reduced by an average of 15% as the entire knife kit was consolidated and immediately accessible.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- For best results, place your longest knives in the bag first to see how they fit.
- Alternate handles from end-to-end to help distribute the weight evenly.
- Always use plastic knife guards on your blades for ultimate protection and safety.
- Use the larger accessory pocket for bulky items like sharpening steels to avoid pressure on your blades.
Keeping It Going
- Regularly wipe the bag's interior and exterior with a clean, damp cloth.
- Ensure knives are always clean and completely dry before storing them to prevent rust.
- Periodically check the zip and stitching for any signs of wear and tear.
- Avoid overstuffing the bag, as this can put stress on the zip and seams.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are the knives shown in the pictures included with the bag?
A: No, the bag is supplied empty. This allows you to fill it with your own preferred knife collection. Knives are sold separately.
Q: What is the maximum length of knife that this bag can hold?
A: Given its 480mm dimension, it can comfortably accommodate knives with a total length (blade and handle) of up to around 460mm, which covers most chef knives and even many slicers.
Q: Is the commercial knife carry bag waterproof?
A: The material is durable and water-resistant, meaning it will protect your knives from splashes and light rain, but it is not designed to be fully submerged in water.
Q: Can I lock the bag for extra security?
A: The zip fasteners have standard pulls, so a small travel padlock could be threaded through them to provide an extra layer of security.
Q: How should I clean the Dick DL381 knife roll?
A: The best way to clean the bag is to wipe it down with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or machine washing it.
Q: Is the shoulder strap detachable?
A: Yes, the shoulder strap is attached with clips and can be easily removed if you prefer to carry the bag by its handle only.
Q: What sort of items fit in the large accessory slot?
A: It's ideal for sharpening steels, honing rods, digital thermometers, plating tweezers, peelers, or even a small notebook.
Q: Is this a hard case or a soft bag?
A: This is a soft-sided bag, which allows for flexibility while the durable fabric still provides excellent protection for the contents.

Explore more from DickHow Double-Sided Storage Makes Life Easier
Ever tried to unroll a single-sided knife case that seems to go on forever? The 'double-sided' design of this chef knife organiser bag cleverly solves that problem. Think of it like a book. When you unzip and open it, you have two distinct surfaces for storage, one on each side. This means you can get to all 34 slots without needing a three-foot-long space to roll it out on a busy prep counter.
This layout is brilliant for organisation. You could keep your main workhorse knives—your chef's, santoku, and bread knives—on one side, and your smaller or specialist tools like paring knives, tourne knives, and boning knives on the other. It keeps things compact, balanced, and lets you find the exact tool you need in seconds, rather than searching through one long row of blades.
Who Should Buy This?
- Mobile & Event Caterers: Securely transport your entire professional knife set between different jobs and venues.
- Culinary Arts Students: A fantastic professional chef knife storage case to protect your growing investment through college.
- Executive & Hotel Chefs: Easily move essential tools from the main kitchen to prep stations or banquet halls.
- Catering Tutors & Demonstrators: Keep your full range of demonstration knives organised, sharp, and ready for any class.
