Can anyone tell me what knives are missing from this set? There are several slots that are empty. Thanks!

Don't think any knives are "missing"...instead, the block has spaces for additional knives. We added a Santoku knife since we perfer it. Still have 4 add'l slots that I suppose would be good for specialty blades or other size blades.

Dale, I actually got this set for my grandson for Christmas, but I've been using the same exact set since 1967. Of course, the case is long gone as are the orginal blades, but I'm hoping the knives themselves are the same high quality metal construction all around, chucks included. The only plastic you should see evident would be the red handle on the big knife, which comes in handy when you attach a miter saw blade, not included with this set, but a great accessory to have. Hope this helps. If you decide to get this set, I think you'll be pleased with these knives. Mine have given me almost half a century of use and I could have passed them on to my grandson, but hey, I'm not done with them yet. ;-)

Sorry Kim I was talking about a set of J.A Henkle knives set I purchased. The 45 piece Hostess Set is great! Nice balance and weight. The set is worth every penny.

Hello! The knife set was a gift for someone, so I don't have it in hand. However, I do remember that when I received it, it did look exactly as pictured and what I had expected to receive.

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.

So sorry for delay. Those slots are very snug and will only fit 1 knife each, very thin slots that hold the knives quite still.

I'm so sorry but I'm not able to answer your question. I've looked on line for this set but it does not give the information you requested anywhere.It's also not indicated on the knife itself.Peter

No block for knife set. I never was overly impressed with the knives, but I bought the set for the near complete pots and pans. I'm still loving cooking with this set. Just make absolutely sure you remember to manually add in the 11in pan in the gift section. I didn't and will have to get one separately for another $100.

Yes there are 2 empty slots. I purchased 2 more knives to fill them in. Love them, but be careful they are extremely sharp...

I don't recall each size offhand and they are packed away for moving right now. You can probably figure that out like I did, look at each piece one at a time to get the overall dimensions, they are all for sale individually. They do fit fairly well albeit not factory perfect in the holder however never had anyone comment on this either. Holder is left over from a set of Ginsu knives.

Hello! First of all, this set is wonderful. The set we purchased comes with; a French Chef's knife, an Old-Fashioned Butcher's knife, a Slicer knife, a super Parer knife, a regular Paring knife, a Steak/Utility knife, a Vegetable Peeler and a Carving Fork. We also purchased the set of 6 Steak Knives and the cutlery Quick Edge Sharpener. Love them all. Needed to replace the Butcher's Knife with no questions asked and had no problems returning for a free replacement. We HIGHLY recommend this product because they are made in the U.S.A. with pride and they stand behind their products. Enjoy them like I do!!!!

You have several options. You can directly contact Amazon. Go to Help/Contact Us and either e-mail or call them. Tell them a knife is missing and ask them if they can replace the knife or if you must send them the entire cutlery block set for a refund or exchange. Personally, I would choose the other option first. I would contact Chicago Cutlery at www.chicagocutlery.com and go to Warranty at the bottom of their website. You can call or e-mail them, asking them if they can mail you another knife. You may have to provide proof of purchase, which is easy. Simply go to Your Account/Your Orders/Invoice. Print a copy of the invoice, scan the copy and e-mail it to the company, or copy the invoice and paste it into the body of the e-mail. That may work. I'm sorry for the missing knife. I know it must be frustrating. These are really nice knives. I hope my answer helps you. Have a great day

No problem with knife slots... be aware, the color is not really walnut. It's like dark cherry.

According to the Sears website, this has eight 4 1/2" steak knives. Presumably the entire bottom row is steak knives. You can read which other knives are included at: http://www.sears.com/chicago-cutlery-insignia-steel-18-piece-block-set-with-in/p-00879166000P. I was also a little annoyed that the specs were not included. Have a good one!

The kit pictured does not contain replacement knives for the Swiss Card, my only suggestion is to try Victornox first, then just google it. Sorry for the obvious answer, but I do not have a spare to sell.

There are no steak knives. I'm not sure why they list them in the description. The set includes service for twelve of the five utensils pictured, plus the 5 serving utensils listed.
