I have 24 dinner knives, but no butter spreaders. Will someone try putting their dinner knives in the butter spreader slots &amp; tell me if they fit?

I just looked. It won't work. I don't even have to try. Not enough room for the handles to intertwine. Can you use the bottom drawer if you aren't loaded with serving pieces ?

I don't have your set but I do have 2 others. The knives have their own slot for their size. Sometimes it just means you have to switch which way you have the blade pointing.Hope that helps.

I have a wooden block of knives from the parent company of Pure Komachi, and from experience with that, while the slots will accomodate any knife, certain length knives will not fit properly into some of the slots. Also, I noticed that I have a Pure Komachi sandwich knife, which is not part of this block, and will NOT fit in any of the slots, due to the odd shape and width of the blade.

I'm not sure Patricia is referring to the same butter dish as this is not Corelle. I am right now resting a small (approximately six inch) knife on the rim of the dish. Wish I knew how to upload a photo here!

My block is wood and has spaces for steak knives. The one in this picture is not familiar to me. Sorry.

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.

Right now, I have 10 knives of various sizes, half of them have somewhat large blades. As others are saying, I could probably fit more. The best part is the flexibility of putting whatever size knife you have wherever it fits, and not being tied to slots. I bought one for my daughter who admired mine when she was visiting during the holidays. She and her friends think it's great.

I can only put my large chapping knives in it because the smaller steak knives don't work. No bottom to it.... The brackets holding the drop leaf on my also cracked before installed, so I'm scared to really use it.

The most common use for the spreader is for spreadable cheese and other spreads. Place it on the tray with the crackers and spread when serving. Also use it for spreading frosting on cupcakes and cakes. To smooth out the frosting, warm the spreader with warm water. Dry it before using it on frosting. this entire set is Awesome! Best knife set I have ever used!

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 knife area is different but I was able to put 2 different knives in. Are your's too big or have you just not found the slits

I have 2 paring knives, 1 6" utility knife, a 8" chef, a 10" bread knife, and a pair of kitchen shears--so 6 items. I could probably put a couple more in, but there is a point with this type of rod system where you put too many knives in and the rods will start to bind/get tight and hold the blades too firmly to slide them in/out easily. I'd say 8 of varied sizes is a good max fit, maybe 10 if small (with a tight fit). Block won't fit a 12" knife very well (too tall for the block)--works OK but the blade near the handle will be sticking out. Good luck. P.S. as other person mentioned, heavy and stable--like it for a small kitchen space.

yes they will. the blade at it's widest point is 7/8" so it will fit with no problems. we have ours in a knife block as well. fyi-we read somewhere that you should store knives upside down in the knife block. the reason...as you slide the knife in and out of the slot with the sharp side rubbing against the block, it will dull the knife quicker. if the slots are horizontal, there is no issue.

Hi Felicia, I'm a little surprised that Amazon would refer you to me since I blasted Amazon for advertising one brand and sending me another. Furthermore, I let Amazon know how disappointed I was with their bait and switch. More to the point I would not order them from Amazon because you don't know what they'll send you. I requested a specific brand (Roomboter, because they are made with real butter) and didn't get them even though I saw them as being available on Amazon. Apparently Amazon doesn't read what their customers review. Good luck Felicia!

I put all my knives in a lined drawer. I don't use knife holders. I do love these knives.

It depends on the number of additional serving pieces you have. I purchased it for a service for 12 and although it fits not only the service for 12 but some additional extra serving pieces, because some of the serving pieces were oversized and there were so many extras, I had to put them in a different box. However, if you just have service for 16 and the four extra knives, they probably will fit. There is a top and bottom drawer. Love this chest.
