Will this hold the 10" Chefs knife? 11" tall by 5" deep, so it should fit in that top slot if the slot is wide enough. Anyone know for sure?

I have the Classic 10" Chef's knife in mine (which is only 2" wide). The widest slots are only 2.5", so this will not work for a 5" wide knife.

It likely could accommodate however your drawer would need to be deep enough to accommodate the height of the cleaver. Maybe a little awkward, depending on height of knife possibly wobbly. I like the product, it has been durable and accommodates bread knifes, paring, chef type, steak... etc.

I can't see what you are responding to ("So, Obviously . . . ) so I'm not sure if it will fit perfectly in your drawer but I also have a drawer liner underneath so it doesn't slip around. Additionally I have both the small Wusthof Knife holder and this one side by side plus extra room on the side. I really love both of them and they are the best that I've found and I search for months to find an in-drawer knife holder.

Are we discussing some professional Chef;s knives? It wont hold them as it is not wide enough for many of the longer knives. If it is for personal use, than maybe, but you will want to measure all of your pieces to ensure none are linger than 11.75 inches.

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

Yes. That is how I have mine installed and it holds a chefs knife, 10" bread knife and a 5" knife.

Yes, definitely. This will hold up to two 10"-12" chef knives in both the top left and top right slots.

The 10" bread knife should fit...however, what the picture and product description do not divulge is that the bottom of the block is not solid. The knife slots continue from the top of the block to the bottom. So your 10" knife should fit, but the tip of the knife may hit your counter top. Something soft underneath the bottom of the block should prevent any damage to the blade. All in all, it is a very nice block set. If your heart is set on finding a block specifically to accommodate your bread knife, then you may want to look for something else. Otherwise, if you really like this particular block set regardless of your bread knife, then it's a very good deal and I highly recommend.

I have an 8 inch chef's knife, and the entire blade fits into the slot. I didn't know they made a 14 inch chef's knife. Maybe there is one, but I haven't seen it. Are you measuring the blade plus the handle? If so, I would say your knife is probably a 10 inch chef's knife. If it is, the entire blade probably would not fit into the slot, which could be dangerous when you reach for a nearby knife and touch the sharp edge of you chef's knife.

It will hold a 12"chef knife but only one. I like this block a lot. Its heavy and wont tip over.

I have a bread knife that size. :) The knife holder will only fit 7 knives of that size. It alternates between large knives and small knives.

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

Sandy, I have my large knives in this in-drawer knife holder & they are sit appx. 2-1/2" high in the holder. I don't see a problem with your drawer hight. Ann

Hi. It will depend on the size of the knife. The allowable storage in the drawer is 13"L x4"D X1-1/2" H. There is a divider in the drawer that prohibits storing at an angle. I doubt there is enough room in the top part of the chest. I hope this helps. I do love it and would buy it again.

The longest knife I have in the block has a 9" blade. In the upper slots, I would imagine you could have a knife with a blade a couple of inches longer without difficulty. Depending on the knives you have, you will want to check the widths of the blades as there is only one slot wide enough for my chef's knife with a wide blade.

That depends on the knives. I have 2 8" chef knives, an 8" santoku, a 12" carving knife, and a key chain bottle opener hanging on mine. It still has enough room to add a paring/petty knife.

I bought this block for my daughter and don't know for sure if your knife will fit in the block. Your knife seems unusually long and wide. I measured my knives and block and your knife would not fit in my block and I believe my daughter's is roughly the same size. You may need to contact the manufacturer.
