Will this store a 14-inch chef knife?

My 270 yanagiba fits fine but I'd have to say 14" is too long. Some slots are fairly thin too...

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.

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.

No...probably the longest knife you could store is a 300mm and I'm not even 100% sure that would work. I store 270mm knives in mine and they get fairly close to hitting the bottom. My guess is that you will probably not find any countertop block that will hold a knife that long. You will most likely have to stick with a wall strip or keep it in a drawer.

I don't Believe it will. I have a shun 8 inch chef knife and, it doesn't even fit in the slot well. Hope that helps:)

I keep mine at my station and it's no problem. Mine is STUFFED with everything I need and it's probably no more than 8 inches thick. I have a FULL set if knives, nearly every gadget that is standard, plus a few extras and it all fits. This is a great bag.

i have a butcher knife and a 6 inch chef's on mine. they stay up, but I think the butcher knife is pushing the limits of the magnet strength. I think the knives you describe would fit and hold, probably not too much else or it will get crowded.

I have the Classic 10" Chef's knife in mine (which is only 2" wide). The widest slots are only 2.5", so this will not work for a 5" wide knife.

Are we discussing some professional Chef;s knives? It wont hold them as it is not wide enough for many of the longer knives. If it is for personal use, than maybe, but you will want to measure all of your pieces to ensure none are linger than 11.75 inches.

My knife holder is 4 & 1/8 inch wide, 17 inches long, and 2 inches high at the highest point. It would easily fit in a kitchen drawer, but I use my knives so much that I keep them on the counter. The knife holder looks fine on my countertop.

Yes it does. I just checked. We have a 12" chef's knife (that's a large-bladed chopping knife, right?) that we keep in the bamboo block.

You got teased a bit� I hope you got the answers you needed. I love it. One reason is because it takes up considerably less space on the countertop. My 7 inch knives fit.

The one that I have, the 14 knife one, is around 9 inches. They make a 7 slot one that is 4 inches wide.

It's specifically fitted for the 8.2 inch gyutou chefs knife. I'm not sure if another knife would fit.

My Victorinox French Chef knife is more like 8.5 inches but is does fit in the knife safe, and it closes, just barely.

Yes it does, we have 2 large chef knives in ours. The blades are about 8 inches and they both fit. Love this knife block!

It will fit perfectly in d same size bag as well...14in won't do any harm either..

Yes it will hold your knife. The length from one "hand" to the other is a little more than 10 1/2 in. so it'll work.

in my experience, yes. i've had this knife block for a year. i use this to store 1 victorinox chef's knife, 4 steak knives, and 1 pair of scissors. i found that the chef's knife has cut through multiple rods even though i don't sharpen it, and some rods have been severely bent. i will still keep using it, but i'll have to find another way to put the knives in (top of the blade in first?) and be more careful about it.

It fits a 7in Calphalon Santoku knife very nicely. I would bet a 7in Wusthof Santoku would fit without a problem.

My drawer is 3-1/4" deep which gives the biggest knife handle a 1/4" clearance. It might be close, but your knives just might make it(???)
