it does not seem to hold my knives, is this a universal holder?

As I indicated in my review, I barely fit my pistol (fat) handled knives in the lid space reserved for knives. If you feel along the velvet ledge along the bottom of the lid, you will find 12 slits. I shoved my rounded tops down into the slits, so they're upside down. Mine are long, too, and just fit once shoved down. Fortunately, I only have 8 settings; 12 fat knives would not have fit.

Yes I have 2 different sets and both sets fit in the knive holders in the lid

I had no problem with my silverware. I have large and somewhat smaller knives in my antique silverware. I don't know what to suggest.

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 gave it as a gift and they said everything fit in the knive holders in the lid. I suggest taking a closer look at it maybe they go down more into the holder.

Probably not, it may stretch to it because the sides are elastic. But it's for a smaller knife.

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 wanted to answer this question and comment on other responses because I used these as basis to determine if my knives would fit. The largest slot would NOT hold my 8" Wusthof chef knife, which was the reason I purchased the product.

The width of the slots varies, just like any knife block. It holds my 7" chef's knife, paring knife, utility knife, and bread knife. The two widest slots are 1-7/8" wide; the next widest is 1-1/4". It might not hold a 9" chef's knife, but otherwise, it should hold all of your cutlery.

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.

You might be able to unscrew it. However it doesn't stick out far and i like it, but beware if you plan on using the knife holder mine came attached, but it was on up-side-down and there is no way you can turn it right side up so, any knives put in it would obviously fall out.

I don't know the longest blade it will hold, but I insert a 10-inch blade in a slot - works just fine.This is a very nice knife holder.

I believe it is strong enough to hold the knives with no problem....As sometimes I have to actually twist the knife to remove it from the strip. My opinion is yes.....

It seems to JUST hold our 8" chef's knife from Ikea. If I stick my hand under the knife holder I can just feel the point of the knife, but, it doesn't hit the countertop.

Yes, I think it's strong enough to hold the knives if you mount the bar vertically. The magnet on my strip is pretty darn strong...it holds a meat cleaver with no problem.

Yes it does, and resembles other holders, but not sure about compatibility.

Does a holder fit into a different holder? What an odd question. I have no idea.

My tallest knife is exactly 3" high so this might not work for you. Check out the options at The Container Store. I think I saw a selection of knife holders for drawers there. Good luck.

I have shun and global knives and all the knives fit very well. When the knives sit in the knife drawer, the handle is the same height as the handle rest therefore you will not have a problem closing the drawer.

Yes It holds my 8" chef knife my Calphlon bread knife very well. I think you would be very happy with this block, It's solid and holds everything that we need and it's beautiful. Good luck and happy holidays. :)
