EEK! Not including knives, I hope??!! Leaving sharp knives in a dishtub is a good way to generate an emergency @Call: 911 or @Errand: Emergency room.

The rule here is that all knives are washed and put away as soon as they are no longer in use. We're paranoid because we have cats, but it's not a bad plan in general.
