Wüsthof 17-Slot Walnut Knife Block

A knife block keeps edges off the drawer and the counter, and Wüsthof’s 17-slot walnut block holds a complete home collection in a footprint about the size of a cookbook. The dark, rich grain of walnut suits a kitchen with wood cabinets or butcher block counters.

Customers ask us which knives fit which block. This one is planned around a typical kitchen, with wide slots for your largest blades and a row of narrow ones for a full set of steak knives. The exact widths of each slot appear in the Details, so you can measure the heel of your widest blade before ordering.

The block holds knives from any brand, so it suits knives gathered from several makers or a Wüsthof set such as the Classic 9-piece block set. The same layout comes in acacia and black, and the 25-slot acacia block is the step up for a larger collection. Wüsthof’s pull-apart kitchen shears fit the shear slot.

    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. Because walnut is a natural wood, the color and grain of each block will vary.
