Will the knife block hold a cleaver with 7.5"x 3.25" blade?

Just measured the block and it will hold a 9.750" X 2.25" blade at it widest and longest slot, sorry.

will this hold a folding knife approx. 4.75 inches long , approx. 1 1/2 inches wide and 3/4 of inch thick

The slot is 4 7/8 inches wide. Enough room for my cleaver and a small boning knife.

The cleaver slot is 10cm wide or nearly 4inches. A great knife block this is.

The sharp side of the blade sits on the drawer itself. The block does not elevate it. The blade would need to be less than the 3 inch deep drawer. I really like this block.

Although there is one 2.25" slot the are three 1.75" and couple of 2" slots the Shun block has 3 2.25 " slots so for large knives I think the Shun block is a better choice.

I don't have a cleaver but I can stack my chefs knife and my santoku almost on top of each other. It is best for a smaller knife collection.

Yes it will! Providing the lock diameter your trying to cut will fit between the jaws. I think that dimension is about 3/4" maximum. J.D.

Yes. My meat cleaver blade is 3 inches wide, the drawer the holder is in 4 inches deep. It works.

A 5" piece will fit under the blade, but I wouldn't feel safe cutting anything thicker than 3 1/2".

There are different sized slots for different blades, I have a 7inch chefs knife that it holds perfectly and a 10in bread knife that works. Sorry if this doesnt help. For the price its a great block

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.

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

I have a 10.25" bread knife and it fits fine in the top slot for the cleaver. It won't fit in the other slots because it's too wide so I don't know if there is a length constraint there. My 8 inch knife gyuto knife fits fine in the top slots.

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.

Yes it does, we have 2 large chef knives in ours. The blades are about 8 inches and they both fit. Love this knife block!

The longest blade I have is 9.75". It fits into the 2" wide slots without coming thru the bottom of the block, but not the lower 1.5" slots. My 7.75" blade fits all but the bottom row of slots.
