What is the space between knife slots? Would someone with this item be so kind as to measure? Thanks!

From the center of one slot to the center of the next slot is approximately 3/8". I alternated sides when I inserted the blades, so if the slots are horizontal, one blade comes in from the right, the next from the left. That gives a bit more leeway if your handles are extra large. Agree with S.K. Polley... the blade of a butter knife fits nicely.

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.

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!

My kitchen drawer is 2 1/2 inches with a 1/4 to spare for space When I measured knife holder with my largest knife handle in place it measured just under 2 3/4 inches. So I believe this will work in your drawer. I really like having the knives off the counter. I hope this helps with your decision to purchase.

I don't have such knife. But the biggest slot is 2 1/2"wide and 10" length. I guess it can be fit in

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.

I have a 10.25" bread knife and it fits fine in the top slot for the cleaver. It won't fit in the other slots because it's too wide so I don't know if there is a length constraint there. My 8 inch knife gyuto knife fits fine in the top slots.

Remeasure from the inside "bottom of the drawer to the top of the drawer opening." Mine is 3.5 inches. The Bamboo knife storage tray and the knives all fit nicely. I posted a picture.

Based on those measurements it should fit. My knife is almost the same size.

My drawer is only 3 and 2/3 inches and everything still clears with plenty of space. The highest part of the knife block is 2 inches and none of my knife blades or handles seem to come up higher than that highest point on the block. You should be fine. I am very happy with mine. Currently have 11 knives stored there.

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...

I can fit 8" of my bread knife in. Have had it for two years with no problem.

My knives are 4.5 inches long so I put one of my longer knives in the slot and measured. It went in to 5 inches. My guess is yes but may depend on the shape of the blade.

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.

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!
