Wüsthof 15-Slot Beechwood Knife Block

Wüsthof’s 15-slot beechwood block is a compact home for a starter collection, with room to add knives over time. Beechwood is pale and fine-grained, a classic choice for a kitchen with light cabinets or a white counter.

Customers ask us whether their knives will fit. Think of it as a 17-slot block with two fewer steak slots. It suits a kitchen with one or two chef’s knives, a bread knife, some smaller knives for paring and trimming, and a short set of steak knives, along with shears and a honing steel. Slot widths are listed in the Details.

Anyone with a full set of six or eight steak knives should look at a 17-slot block such as the walnut or acacia. The 15-slot acacia block is the same size in a warmer wood. A set like the Classic 6-piece starter block set gives you the core knives to start filling it.

    Checking Fit

    • Measure the width of your widest blade at the heel and compare it with the slot widths above.
    • Insert knives with the edge facing up where the slot allows, so the edge does not drag on the wood.

    Care

    Wipe the block with a damp, lint-free cloth. Make sure knives are completely dry before you put them away, and turn the block over now and then to shake out crumbs.
