how wide are the top two slots and will they accept a 21/4 inch wide blade?

The top two slots are 2 inches wide, max, so a 2 1/4 inch blade would be too wide. Too bad, because it's a nice block.

The widest slots are exactly 2 inches. It is a great product, we are very happy that we purchased it!

The slot is 3/32" wide. I have no idea whether an electric knife would fit.

Slot is deep enough, but fit will depend on the width of the knife. That's said, the slot is pretty wide.

I happen to have a Skil saw (but mine takes a 5 1/4" blade). The guide fits perfectly, and I can't imagine Skil would put different size slots on different saws.

I measured 3 1/2 inches across the widest part. Hard to get exact measurment because that part of the blade is not flat, but has the corer in the middle.

It was bought for a friend whose comment was "it's awesome." Texted her about size of blade and she says she has no idea - maybe 4". I'll try and get more information for you in a day or two. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

The description must be inaccurate, then. The blade area is around 8 inches. The only dimension that's close to 4 inches is the depth, but it's actually a little more than 4 inches.

From what I could tell, by laying my S.A. on the one in the Wall Street Journal article it fits, for now. Dry measure my knife was 2.36, but I've had longer ones that would not make it. My saw blade is an rch from 3",sorryTSA(the stand around) people will be looking into how this will work out. But only in the USA at this time.You will not be "Boarding" over sea's, with a knife yet!

Yes two slots A little over 5/8" at the top and a little over 7/8" wide at the bottom of the slot

A cleaver that big would not fit in the slot easily. The largest slot is 3.4" with a l/4 " opening.

The two wide slots are 5 inches and the narrow slot is just shy of 2 1/8" inches.

The two end slots are 2 1/2" wide by 2 2/2" deep. The two center slots are 2 3/4" wide by 3" deep.

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" wide The hole for the sharpening steel is 5/8" square These 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!

It depends on the length of the actual cutting blade. The lenght of the widest slot measures 11.25 inches.

If you mean how wide are the slots, they're approximately 5" wide. Hope this answers your question.

The blade is 36 inches long and 8 inches wide. I really like my Sno-Blade. I hopethis helps you.
