MIU 7-Slot Maple Cutting Board with Drawer Review

MIU 7-Slot Maple Cutting Board with Drawer
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Mine arrived damaged. Otherwise, the cutting board top is nice and solid. However, the drawer doesn't close all the way and certain of the newer cutlery doesn't fit inside. Also, very big and bulky. I opted to go for the Wustoff drawer knife tray that fits nicely in any kitchen drawer.

Victorinox Cutlery BladeSafe for 8-to-10-Inch Knife Blades Review

Victorinox Cutlery BladeSafe for 8-to-10-Inch Knife Blades

I really was impressed with how sturdy these blade guards were. I have the 8" Forschner Chef's knife, and it this of course fits it perfectly.
There are soft pads inside the guard that pinch the knife securely and keeps the blade from rattling around. At first, this does create a residue on the blade, but after a few weeks the residue no long appears.
I also have used it on my Mac Pro MTH-80 chefs knife - Due to the thinner Japanese style blade, the pads don't pinch so blade guard doesn't hold the knife completely secure, but the blade is still completely protected and safe. Just keep this in mind if purchasing for a Japanese stamped blade. If you have a standard Henckels, Wustoff or Forschner western style blade - you can't go wrong with these.

I bought this set as a Christmas gift for my son. He's a Chef. He said it was just what he was looking for. So I can only rate it as far as it arrived really fast. And that was regular shipping. I can not write a regular review on it.

J.A. Henckels 10-Slot Hardwood Knife Storage Block Review

J.A. Henckels 10-Slot Hardwood Knife Storage Block
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
now that i finally got a super sharp edge on my old and heavy 10" chef's knife, i thought it would be nice to stick it somewhere other than on top of the drawer tray. i also have a long skinny 10" that never gets dull. i have recently bought an 8" forschner/victorinox chef's knife (5 stars). time for a storage solution.
got this block this afternoon. looks cool, BUT ! my 2 chef's knifes did not fit the block's two large slots. blades bottomed out short of fully inserting, with about 2" to 3" of blade sticking out. i decided to open the tops of the slots to get the knives to nest properly. my trusty bosch jig saw with a hacksaw blade deepened and widened the top twoslots. then i found on the old heavy, the blade back was too thick to go all the way in the slot. more jigsawing. problems solved.
gave this block a third star cause the price was most bearable. maybe henckels knives are thin. also with amazon's price,free shipping and no sales tax, i don't mind not supporting the box stores to buy stuff like this.
suggest that henckels or amazon would state the clearance dimensions of these slots.

Dull cutlery is dangerous cutlery. One of the easiest ways to maintain sharp edges on your fine cutlery is to store the knives in a block. An added benefit is that your knives are conveniently ready and waiting for the next time you need to carve a roast or julienne some veggies.

This knife is Excellent. Came out of the Box sharp as a razor. The rubberized handle is great and easy to grip. I looked at several knives including Global, Wustof, and Henckels and I would say these are at least on par with those. Don't let the price fool you these are High Carbon and Stainless Steel Underneath the bonded Titanium coating. The weight is great and I really enjoy the individual wood blocks. Highly Recommend
