Wusthof Create-A-Set Knife Storage Block

Block is well made, heavy and nice looking. I do not know much about the wood, but the wood is hard, and you can not scratch it with your nail. It well matchs my wusthof classic knives.

scissor's model number is 5558. The steel is 9 inch long, and heavy and well made. Though it does not carry model number, it does feels like something belong to Wusthof grand pix line.

The block can handle 12 inch long knife.

The width of uppper slot is 2.5 inch. If you have a cleaver, there is no place to put it.

In short, this is a great starting set to hold wusthof knives.

I am very satisfied with this knife block. There are more than enough slots for the knives I own. Most of my knives are Victorianox and the slots are varied in size enough to accomodate them. It does take up a bit of counter space because it is slanted and not upright.

Have no idea how I managed to do it, but I wrote the review below and must have clicked that I was under 13 or something, it doesn't show in my personal reviews and it says "a kid's review" which is still kind of hilarious to me. Anyhow, it won't let me remove it??? So yeah. Putting this here again, so that I can edit it, if need be:

I have no idea what the other reviewer is talking about unless this description has been changed.
This product arrived to me EXACTLY as described. Suits my needs wonderfully, is attractive and useful and WHAT a value! The shears and honing rod alone are worth what we paid! I am so glad we ordered this. We're slowly building out Wusthof collection and this is so perfect for us!
