I actually returned this knife block because it did not fit the knives I have. I have a henkels 8" santoku, a 6" chefs knife, a 10" serrated bread knife and a paring knife. As well as six steak knives. This knife block is not deep enough for my serrated blade, and didn't have a slot wide enough for my santoku. Most of the slots were way too wide for other knives. It's also really low profile, so it took up a lot of space on my counter. I think there a fair number of slots, but none suited the knives I have.

There are 14 slots total, 4 of which are steak knife sized, leaving 5 larger and longer slots open. I have a large santoku in mine, and the longer slots at top should be plenty deep for the bread knife.

The depth of the knives is not adjustable. I would write to Weston in regard to the replaceable portion of your question.

I think they only come in sets of at least four. I had lost a couple over the years, so I just ordered four! Great knives!!

The height of my slots is 7/8" and they are 1/8" wide. Mine has only 6 steak knife slots. It would be possible to increase the height of the slots by 1/4" or more. This is a wonderful Storage Block and could be well-worth having altered to accommodate your steak knives.

That back slot is 3 1/4 in wide and the two large ones on the left are 2 in wide. Yes your knives will fit.

The short answer is as many as you want. Since there are no pre-sized slots, you can insert big knives, small knives, cleavers, scissors, and just about anything sharp. Watch this video for a visual explanation: http://youtu.be/oxryUJS_mu0They've expanded the color offerings beyond red and black. I hope you get one -- Enjoy!

No I don't think so, plus don't care for the design or looks. I have a 17 slot one in cherry and love it. All my knives fit plus shears have there own slot.

I don't know the technical names of the knives, but they range in size from 3 1/2", 4 1/2", 5 1/2", and 6" long with the 5 1/2" having a wider width with a straight edge for cutting while the 6" widens toward the handle and has a scallopped cutting edge. For the price, I am completely satisfied! I hope this helps you out.

I measured the slots and here is what I came up with:3 @ 2"1 @ 2 1/8"2 @ 1 1/4"1 @ 1 1/2"2 @ 1"The scissor slot is 1 5/8" wideThe hole for the sharpening steel is 5/8" squareThese numbers are very precise. For instance, a 2 1/4" blade would not fit in the 2 1/8" slot. I have a combination of Shun, Wusthoff and Henckels knives in my block. Good luck!
