Convinced the first impression,

how it goes, let's see.
I decided against the usual diameter blocks with slits because the specified size does not necessarily correspond to my desired diameter sizes. So have most room for a sharpening steel or the scissors, the first I do not need and the gap is located elsewhere. Then I do not want to play nightly knife meeting in slot also.
So it was this. As a gift for Christmas.

Impressive heavy. This stable. The wooden sides nice and thick. The acts with value and provides solid work. Very nice.
What "I-can-a-knife-throw-where-I-want-advantage" still speaks next to him, is the space-saving vertical. Perfect. The other clearly need more space.

The first impression is very good, I hope these will be confirmed.
The application can be ordered individually as opposed to an opinion expressed herein. I order him soon on stock. You never know.

A great gift. I never wanted to have a knife block, but this one convinced me. Because he is than other differently.
