How tall is the block with all the knives in it? I live in NYC, tight on space, and trying to see if I can make it work.

The measurements of the entire block including the knives is 13 inches tall, 13 inches front to back and 7 inches wide. I love, love, these knives. I had another set of Chicago Cutlery knives for the last 30 years. They had wooden handles which were starting to fall apart but the blades were still going strong. This time I plan to buy a really good electric knife sharpener to go with this set. I hope these knives fit into your kitchen. They're great knives.

It's not IKEA compact, it's 13 inches high and about 12 from front to back. The knives are super sharp and nice to work with, if you're careful!

It is about 2" taller then a reg "cheap" microwave. Mine set on the same bakers rack shelf.

Sorry about the delay, but this was sent to my spam folder. I would say that the block with the knives inserted is probably around a 12 to 15 inches tall. I am not near the set right now, but i would say that it is deeper than taller. The angle is probably around 45 degrees or so.

Mt drawer is slightly less than three inches. I have a large carving knife, cleaver and a chefs knife that don't fit in the holder. Those are kept separately. All others fit with no problem. I find the holder the best way I have found to store knives

If I read the description of the block correctly the depth is 15 1/2" and the knife is 11" so it should fit. You may want to compare the length of the knives that come in the block set to double check.

I have over a dozen in mine - two 8-inch chef's, two 8-inch santoku, one six-inch santoku, one six-inch boning knife, eight steak knives, two paring knives, and one cheese knife. The block is great if you have a lot of shorter knives, especially the kinds you almost never sharpen. My larger, sharper knives have decimated the "fingers".

alot of wrong size answers here.. Here is the sizesHere is basically what you have:1 - 1 3/8"2 - 1 7/8"2 - 7/8"1 - 1"2 - 1 1/4"these are exact sizes, see my posted response in other area for how to widen your slots to be able to accept much larger knives.. I own Shun Edo, and they are WIDE.. i own 2 of the blocks with a modded one.. nothing better on the market in my opinion

Cleaver slot is a little shy of 4 Inches. I love this knife block and am so happy I ordered it.

Depends on how big the knives are, not being funny, I currently have 12 in my block, a couple of the knives are a decent size. It was an excellent buy.

I was pleasantly surprised how well our knives fit in the block and in our 4" drawers. You should have no problem with the 3" drawers.

Look up the W Steak knife and check the length. Beware, quality issues with block. I RETURNED mine.

I think not. I just measured and the longest blades I have in the block are a little over 10" I do love the knife block and find it works very efeciently for me holding just the right # of knives that I use on a daily basis.

My Wusthof storage block, like to one shown, measures 11 inches from top to bottom. I am storing a 10" sharpening steel in that slot.

Absolutely...and trust me, you're going to be quite pleased with the block.....my only issue is I'm storing my colorful, ceramic knives and the contrast between the knives and the bamboo look so terrific I'm constantly opening the drawer to look at them; My husband commented he wished we could leave it out on the counter!! The quality of this item can't be beat. I'd toyed with the idea of purchasing the acrylic block (which is a little pricey) and I'm so glad I waited.

I would like to be able to answer your question, but the block was a Christmas gift for my daughter-in-law and she was excited for the twenty slots for knives. She didn't mention the slot size. Sorry.

on that far side it's looks like a shelf almost but it's just enough room for a row of knifes. Not a block just a space

The block is approximately 11" deep by 4 1/4" wide and with knives in it about 13" high.

The set I got was complete in that it had all of the knives listed on the package but there are still open spots on the knife block. I bought a cleaver, 8" carving knife and 8" Hollow Edge to fill out the block.

I have 3 standard (6 and 2 8" chefs knives in the blocks and they fit fine. dont think they go much wider than that.
