Wüsthof in Drawer Knife Storage, Natural Wood, 14-Slot

Wood storage in drawer try to safely store all of your knives. Thoughtfully crafted and meticulously designed in Germany, manufactured in China. Family owned for seven generations, WÜSTHOF was founded in Solingen, Germany over 200 years ago. ;This knife tray conveniently houses all kitchen cutlery in a drawer without occupying valuable counter space. Made of hardwood, the tray is a slim 7-1/2 inches wide and 1-1/2 inches high and fits within a drawer that is 16-3/4 inches deep. The 14 knife slots include space for eight steak knives or shorter knives with up to a 5-inch blade and six longer knives with up to a 10-inch blade or, alternately, a sharpening steel. The slots intersperse the longer knives between the shorter in what Wusthof refers to as a "wave" pattern, which makes knife handles easier to grasp and remove. Blades are completely covered in the slots to prevent against accidental cuts and to keep them from dulling. A felt backing underneath the tray keeps it from scratching kitchen drawers. --Cristina Vaamonde.
