The product is exactly as pictured. It fits all my largest knives, including several types of chef knives. The raised slots are plenty wide to accomodate wider handles from an assortment of knives from various brands. Some of the other knife blocks brands have narrower slots for the raised section, but this one has plenty of room for all of my knives, including my Chicago Cutlery knives. The knife block fits well in my drawer when full. The block seems to be plenty longer than my longest knives.
My first impression from the picture was positive. A closer look when I received the item showed that on the bigger knife section, the edge of the knife is sitting on metal rods that are covered in rubber. In the one that I received the rubber did not completely covered some of the metal rods which left the blades of some of the bigger knifes exposed to the metal rods. I will still be concerned if the metal rods were completely covered with the rubber since with some use the rubber will wear out and the edge of the knife will be in contact with the metal rods which will deteriorate the edge of the knife.
I will have to look for another tray to store my knifes.
Buy Wusthof 14-Slot In-Drawer Knife Organizer Tray, Oak Now
This is a nice knife holder, but Amazon is describing this as a ll slot knife holder, with smaller dimensions. I ordered 2 based on Amazons dimentions. What I received was a knife drawer, that holds 14 knives. It requires a 17" drawer depth, 9" wide and 3" high. The 2 knife holders, will not fit in the drawer as planned. This doesn't detract from the quality of the knife holder. But, please note the dimensions, what Amazon is describing is not this design model. The 29.99 is a great price for this item. I had ordered the version that Amazon is describing last year from an Amazon seller, and paid more for it with the shipping, than Amazon is currently selling this one for.Read Best Reviews of Wusthof 14-Slot In-Drawer Knife Organizer Tray, Oak Here
Ordered with Wusthof knives for my wife. The discription says "Oak", but the selection choice for ordering is either "Beechwood" or "Walnut" (higer priced) and the attached picture appears it is made of Beechwood. This unit is made in China and not sure what the species of wood is, but it is laminated with a lot (8) of knot defects in the wood. The indiivdual blocks that make up this organizer were out of alignment/crooked so that one of the large knife slots is unusable. Only 1 of the large knive slots was aligened with the end block. Wustohf knives are of excelent quality and I don't know why they would allow such an inferior product to have their name on it.Want Wusthof 14-Slot In-Drawer Knife Organizer Tray, Oak Discount?
Although my Wusthof set of knives came with a knife-block, I wanted the ability to keep this fine set of cutlery in a drawer instead of on the counter top taking up my space. This tray fits the purpose to a "T". It easily holds my entire 11 piece set of knives plus the sharpening tool. The only piece it won't hold are the poltry scissors, which I just place in a tray next to it. It is not a big deal to me that the scissors won't fit. I was a little afraid that children could get ahold of the knives if left in the block. Being concealed in a drawer is "Out of sight, out of mind". The tray fit in a basic drawer and the knife blades are protected and secure. It was well worth getting. And yes, I would buy it again.Save 25% Off
