Beautiful knife storage unit. Well made, solid, heavy and looks really nice on my counter. Worth the price of $88 -However, the picture is deceiving. It says it holds 5 knives, but what the heck, I might be able to get 6 or 7 depending on the size of the knife, right? Well, not really. Across the top of the glass are two stainless steel bars that protect the top of the glass -no problem with that. But then there are 4 1 inch vertical bars which I wasn't expecting. They are welded to the horizontal bars and guarantees that you can't get more then 5 knives in the holder. This is not shown in the picture and not what I expected. If the company would offer to trade me for no vertical bars or maybe 2 bars if they need it for support, I'd give this 5 stars easily. I'm considering taking this to a metal shop to see if they can be removed without damaging the unit.
1/27/13 I am long overdue writing this review and updating this knife storage to 5 stars. After a month or so I was playing around with this again and realized the 4 1 inch vertical bars would simply flip out of the way. So you can use them or not. My problem was solved.I chose this glass knife storage because it is sleek and modern with the added advantage of being able to see your knives through the clear glass!
