I'm going to culinary school. My knife kit weighs about 40#. It's meas 30 x 6 x 2. I know it would stick out the top. Any thoughts? long walk.

I think 40# would be pretty heavy for it over time. I think a small rolling suitcase might be sturdier. . . and easier to maneuver/carry up stairs, etc.

You could raise the handle, place your kit standing up in the bottom of the box, against the handle; then wrap with rope, or tape, or a bungee cord to keep it in place.

It all depends how thick your utensils are. I have three of these. In the first, I place all 12 of each (forks, spoons, desert spoons/forks) in one place/direction. 12 knives normally don't fit, so you'll have to split. I have photos I'll try to upload if I can.

Don't have the knife on me. However, you cud subtract the total length from the blade length to get an approximation. (I guess the blade length is the length of the cutting edge), hence the approximation. But it fits well in the 5th pocket of a Levi's

Supposed to hold 60 but that seems to put a strain on it.(elastic straps)..I have around 40 in mine and I purchased a extra one. 60 small knives may fit

I have a 10" extra wide chef, 8" chef, 7" santoku and 8 " bread knife in there with a 3.5, 4.5 and 5" paring at the bottom. Hope this helps!

I did not actually weigh the item but best guess would be yes. The knife is a solid build would have been good if it came with a clip. Good purchase.

It will be personal reference really. This set has a medium/average weight in the hand. There are heavier sets but personally for me its too much and not needed. This set is also on sale right now too. I'm going to order another so I will have an 8 pc setting. A suggestion for you is to go to a better store and feel flatware and compare how they weigh and feel in your hands to really know.

Ok, actual dimensions are 11.5 x 5.6 x 8 inches ; 6.2 pounds. For me, it holds my bread knife, which is my longest knife, with no problem. It also holds a chefs knife, three santokus, a paring knife, a filet knife, and 8 steak knives. Oh, and my meat thermometer. Buy it. You will love it - I know I do!Oh, also, it holds darn near anything - the inside is thousands of plastic rods that conform around your knives. If one sticks up a little, no problem, because it is being held in place by the little plastic rods.

It depends on your knives and your drawer space. I have about 20-ish in a standard drawer but a couple (in sleeves) facing the opposite way of the others. Also with the larger knives, which have larger handles, I had to place a knife in every other slot rather than every slot. But the great thing about this set is that you can configure it any which way you need.

I have an 8 inch chef's knife, and the entire blade fits into the slot. I didn't know they made a 14 inch chef's knife. Maybe there is one, but I haven't seen it. Are you measuring the blade plus the handle? If so, I would say your knife is probably a 10 inch chef's knife. If it is, the entire blade probably would not fit into the slot, which could be dangerous when you reach for a nearby knife and touch the sharp edge of you chef's knife.

Fits a large carving knife. Don't see why it wouldn't hold a meat cleaver. Limiting factors would be the dimensions of the meat cleaver and the interior height of the drawer.

It's 8" wide by 7 1/4" long and is only 1/4" tall - so it's very slim and would easily fit into a back pack....as a former culinary instructor, I would say this would be a great tool for you....

Length wouldn't be a problem with this shealth, but that cold steel knife is really thick. I have a KA-BAR USMC in this shealth and it fits like a glove measuring in at a thickness of 0.165 inches. Your knife measures in at 0.313 inches. If you know how to mold this shealth to your knife you could make it work but otherwise I don't think it would fit unless you tried jamming it in every time you wanted to put your knife in this sheath. Other than that this is a great shealth of quality U.S.A. make with a great warranty. If you can make your knife fit this shealth you won't be disappointed.

Here is basically what you have: 1 - 1 3/8" 2 - 1 7/8" 2 - 7/8" 1 - 1" 2 - 1 1/4" This is a absolutely GREAT knife holder.... Let me tell you what i done on a second one i ordered.. Its not hard to do, and just takes a little bit of time and patience, and you will need a second person to help you, BUT if your like me, i needed some extra wide slots.. I have all Shun EDO line of knives, and if you have seen their chef's knives, and Santoku knives, you know they are extremely wide.. You can do this to ANY of the slots, and the magnet is embedded in the block... Take the block and put on side and have someone hold down... Take a wood cutting Hacksaw blade and insert into one of the slots.. wrap tape or use a rag on each end (to grip hacksaw blade with) and saw out the little wood partition between 2 of the slots.. You want to saw in a downward motion (easier).. As a example, i sawed out the partition between the 2 small slots that were only 7/8", and that gave me a full 2" for a larger knive.. Just saw right at the edge, and your good to go.. This is the only swinging block that i am aware of on the market, and is really a great unit to have.. As with most blocks, you need larger slots, then all the smaller ones.. I hope this information helped.. Any other questions, please post up, and i will do my best to help you out.

It will be tight, but I think it will work: the large knives are on the bottom of the rack.

I believe it is so long as your knives have a solid blade. One of mine is a cheese knife with a cutout center. It wouldn't have enough mass to hold on.

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.
