For knives big & small.
Who knew corralling your knives could be such a treat? This sleek block has hundreds of thin-as-can-be plastic straws nestled inside, so it’s ready to stash blades of all shapes and sizes. When you wanna store a slicer for safe-keeping, just drop it right in, anywhere you please. Oh, and you can keep the blades coming...it’s got room for as many as you can pack in (or just about, anyway!).

adaptable!
My husband and I each have our own favorite knives, plus there are a few we share. We needed an adaptable knife block, not one tied to one particular set of knives. This is sleek, sturdy, and practical. I like it very much.
Great idea but not functional
The idea is great, however not so practical. After about a month of use, knives would no longer go in cause the straws started bending.
coup de genie!
just a beautiful and fonctional design, my all collection of knives are now handy yet discreet in my open modern kitchen, i just love it, just make sens.
