how wide are the steak knife slots
275412
standard silverware size, large knives like at outback and other steak places probably wont fit well, but a classical henkel or other steak knife fits just fine. I have my henkel brand steak knives in the block all the time, look them up and get their size. The slots will hold a something a little bigger but not much.

Sorry it took so long I mistook it for a request to review. The steak knife slots are 1 inch wide (there are 8) and the top row is at least 5 inches deep. The bottom row is about 4 1/4 inches deep. I hope this helps.

Sorry, I can not answer this question. When this arrived it was damaged, so it was returned. I did not reorder.

The width of the slots run from 7/8-inch for steak knives to 2-inches for chef's knives to 3 3/8-inch to fit a cleaver.

The lower 8 slots are 7/8", the upper portion has 3 slots about 1.5" and 4 slots about 2" and a slot for a cleaver and a bread knife (at least that's what I use it for).

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" wide The hole for the sharpening steel is 5/8" square These 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!

The one I have is about 10 inches long and about two inches wide, so it fits about half a dozen big kitchen knives.

The individual slots are 5 3/4" in length and 1 3/4" in width. Thank you for inquiring!

Sorry, I just noticed your question. The "width" of the knife closed at the widest is 1-3/8". Hope this helps and once again, sorry for the late response.

I believe the sharpener slot is about 1/2" x 1/2". I always make sure the knives are dry before putting them away.

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

The slots in my T-fal are a little more than 5 1/4 inches. They are also wider than most.

There are 3 open slots in the top of the block and 4 below for steak knives. The block fits an 8" chef's knife so it should fit both the santoku and bread knife.

If that is the slot on the back right, then it is about 1/4 in. by 3 1/4 inches. I have three large knives in it, not a cleaver!

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 slot is 4 7/8 inches wide. Enough room for my cleaver and a small boning knife.

Hello, these knives are made from a one piece design, and the handle is thinner than a normal steak knife, so even though they may fit into the slots, they might fall out. But they are still worth buying as they are very sharp and sleek. Just keep them in your drawer.

I have four steak knives, kitchen shears, a paring knife, small Santuko knife, a chefs knife and a bread knife in mine, spaced nicely apart as it is now, but also could fit more. It's not quite deep enough to hold all of the blade of the bread knife, just FYI. I don't mind, but it could be a problem if you try to load more knives...

The sharpener slot is approximately 5/8" x 5/8". And I carefully dry the knives first...
