How many knife this block hold?

I had up to 15 knives. After 3 years, the back of the kapoosh broke and I had to throw it out. I since have read 2 or 3 reviews of people with the same problem.

Since the holder has no slots it all depends on how close you slide the knives together. I have put knives in to test it and my answer would be 20 to 25 with room for 5 more, again depending on how close you put them together. I have purchased this as gifts and they also love theirs. We have have never had any kind of problem with ours to date. There are a few items like our coffee machine that if it broke we would purchase another the next day, I feel the same way about the Kapoosh knife holder.I do hope you found this helpful.

Depends on how big the knives are, not being funny, I currently have 12 in my block, a couple of the knives are a decent size. It was an excellent buy.

I probably have 30 knives in it. You just keep adding and adding to get them out of drawers and it continues to keep mine standing at an angle ready to be used. I've purchased at least 6 of them for friends who have seen mine and loved it.

It depends. I currently have about 15 in it, ranging in sizes. I have about 6 large knives, a bread knife, 4 small paring knives and a few misc. knives. After a while it does freak out and bend the little black pieces, you have to take it out and floof them around to get it back to normal again.

Really depends on the knifes you will putting in it. I would say about 20 steak knifes close together.

I have over a dozen in mine - two 8-inch chef's, two 8-inch santoku, one six-inch santoku, one six-inch boning knife, eight steak knives, two paring knives, and one cheese knife. The block is great if you have a lot of shorter knives, especially the kinds you almost never sharpen. My larger, sharper knives have decimated the "fingers".

Here is basically what you have: 1 - 1 3/8" 2 - 1 7/8" 2 - 7/8" 1 - 1" 2 - 1 1/4" This is a absolutely GREAT knife holder.... Let me tell you what i done on a second one i ordered.. Its not hard to do, and just takes a little bit of time and patience, and you will need a second person to help you, BUT if your like me, i needed some extra wide slots.. I have all Shun EDO line of knives, and if you have seen their chef's knives, and Santoku knives, you know they are extremely wide.. You can do this to ANY of the slots, and the magnet is embedded in the block... Take the block and put on side and have someone hold down... Take a wood cutting Hacksaw blade and insert into one of the slots.. wrap tape or use a rag on each end (to grip hacksaw blade with) and saw out the little wood partition between 2 of the slots.. You want to saw in a downward motion (easier).. As a example, i sawed out the partition between the 2 small slots that were only 7/8", and that gave me a full 2" for a larger knive.. Just saw right at the edge, and your good to go.. This is the only swinging block that i am aware of on the market, and is really a great unit to have.. As with most blocks, you need larger slots, then all the smaller ones.. I hope this information helped.. Any other questions, please post up, and i will do my best to help you out.

Well of course it depends on the size of the knives and how much space you want between them. I put 42 pocket knives in mine, and the are mostly between 3-1/4" to 4" long (closed).

I've never filled it up. It depends how fat the handles are. You really can fit as many as you can jam in there. I would say it would hold a minimum of 10 knives and maybe up to 30 if you had really skinny handles.

3" paring knife, 2 1/2" bird beak peeler, 4 1/2"fruit/veg utility, 4 1/2" serrated utility, 7 1/2" bread knife, 4 1/2" partoku knife, 7" santoku knife, 7 1/2" chef knife, shears, and 6 4 1/2" steak knives. The block has a built-in knife sharpener.

The sleds holds all different sizes. We have the 8" and 7" chef's knives, a Santoku knife, Carver, bread knife and even a Chinese cleaver in ours. The eight slots at the bottom hold steak knives.

there are 20 knife slots, and one for the steel and one for the sheers. Hope this helps - sorry it took me so long to get this answered.

it depends on the size of the knives - and the size of the handles of the knives, but the rack holds quite a few knives. btw...i ordered a second one for scissors, and miscellaneous items

Depends on how big your knives are. If the handles are really skinny you can probably fit maybe 30 knives? It holds all I could ever think of putting in there. I love it!! I have Henckels knives and it probably fits 12 - 20. I don't know for sure because I have never been able to fill it up. Hope this helps!

Yes and No. Yes, the block has 9 slots above the steak knives but there are 6 knives and a sharpener. So....the 17 piece set I bought includes: 1 Wood Block, 1 Pr Kitchen Shears, 8 Steak Knives, 6 other Knives... AND 1 Sharpener (at upper rt hand corner). There ARE 9 slots altogether above the 8 steak knives housing the 6 knives and 1 sharpener. TWO SLOTS ARE INDEED OPEN (one large slot and one small slot). I easily concluded that this was in case the purchaser happened to have extra Calphalon knives on hand, which I did. So my block is filled beautifully.

We use it to hold 12 knives: three small paring knives, two 4" utility knives, one 4" wide-blade spreader, one 6" santuko, one 7" santuko, two 8" French, one 8" carving, and one 8" bread. It could easily hold more.

Hi Jessica, We just released our Shenzhen In-Drawer Bamboo Knife Block (http://www.amazon.com/Shenzhen-Knives-In-Drawer-Bamboo-Knife/dp/B00GJ44VW4). It is perfect for storing your ceramic knives and will protect your knives from chipping. You can store about 9 of our knives or 10-15 regular sized kitchen knives. -Shenzhen Knives Team

I just counted mine and I have 22 not including the block. It might just be the picture. These knives are TOO SHARP. I seriously cut the tip of my finger off. My mother in law needed stitches and my sister had a horrible cut. They are very DANGEROUS! I would NOT buy them again.

I have the same measurements as those listed below. 8.5" high, 4.5" wide and 9" deep. It holds 15 knives from paring knives to large serrated knives. It is large but doesn't take up much room on my counter. It holds four stake knives. If you have more, you can also put them higher on the block. I really like it.

4 knives. 1 santuko, 1 serrated, both larger knives 6" blade on each. The other two are smaller serrated, one would qualify as a parting knife. A good deal if you just need something for now and the next year. I don't expect mine to last much longer than 2 years because of quality and construction

If you lay the complete set of 4 in a single line, you could get 60 or so thin knives in them. However, I don't have 60 thin knives so I put the tip of the blades in one section and the blade closest to the handle on another section. I also put the knives in every other slot so there's plenty of room for the ones with large-handles. I tried many ways to configure the set until I found the best placement of the knives I have. I love the set. I think it saves so much space and is much safer than just laying them in the drawer (and who has space for that!?)
