Largest slot is 4" with four 2" slots and rest smaller. Steak knives also fit very well. Very nice Knife block. Holds all my Japanese and German knives very well.

are you asking about the bottom row of 6 slots? the slots measure 1" so if it's wider than that it won't fit.

Bottom row of 6 slots too narrow but row of 4 above that accommodates wider steak knives.

Mine measures one inch. So, depending on your definition of wide, I would say the answer is "no."

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.

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

It will fit a knife that is not more than 2.25 inches wide. The sheath then begins to taper 6 inches down from the top only on one side. The knife's blade cannot be longer than 8 inches.

I previously purchased larger steak knives and they did not fit inside this block. Only standard size steak sets will fit - I actually had to return the larger set because they did not fit in the block.

The dimensions of the inside of the box are 13 cm (5.25 in) x 4 cm (1.5 in) x 2 cm (.75 in). The slots are a little more than 1 mm wide, a few times the width of the blade. There is some play between the blade and the slot when sawing, but if you hold the piece steady and saw carefully, it shouldn't be an issue.

I measured the slots and here is what I came up with:3 @ 2"1 @ 2 1/8"2 @ 1 1/4"1 @ 1 1/2"2 @ 1"The scissor slot is 1 5/8" wideThe hole for the sharpening steel is 5/8" squareThese numbers are very precise. For instance, a 2 1/4" blade would not fit in the 2 1/8" slot. I have a combination of Shun, Wusthoff and Henckels knives in my block. Good luck!

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

Anything 2 inches wide or less should fit. The slots are thin to fit the razor saw.

It easily accommodates my 6" Wusthof chef's knife. The rack is slightly over 8" long, so it is clearly long enough. I'm not certain about whether the slot is wide enough to accommodate an 8" knife. The slot is wider than my chef's knife, so it's probable that the rack will accommodate an 8" knife. It's a great product, especially in a small kitchen.

I have four steak knives, kitchen shears, a paring knife, small Santuko knife, a chefs knife and a bread knife in mine, spaced nicely apart as it is now, but also could fit more. It's not quite deep enough to hold all of the blade of the bread knife, just FYI. I don't mind, but it could be a problem if you try to load more knives...

Sorry it took so long I mistook it for a request to review. The steak knife slots are 1 inch wide (there are 8) and the top row is at least 5 inches deep. The bottom row is about 4 1/4 inches deep. I hope this helps.

I believe the sharpener slot is about 1/2" x 1/2". I always make sure the knives are dry before putting them away.

It has one slot that will handle a 10 inch Chef's Knife (even the 10 Inch WIDE) in the Wusthof line. I am not sure about other brands of Chef Knives.

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.

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

it is wide enough to hold a big T-Bone steak. That is why we bought it. Works great
