I've run out of room in my knife block and the situation is only going to get worse as time goes on :biggrin:
I started thinking instead of buying saya after saya I would buy an in drawer knife block until I have a decent enough collection to warrant a custom knife block (maybe by that time Boardsmith will be making them again :wink: ) My wife does not want magnetic strips otherwise I would go that route.
I have an Ikea kitchen so naturally I thought of this one http://www.ikea.com/ca/en/catalog/products/60185406/
But I came across a couple others as well

The only problem with the Wustoff (I would be looking at a Walnut version), is one review says the knife block is held together with metal rods i.e. that's what the knife edges sits on. So that one is out of the running I think. I also have to make sure that 240mm Gyuto's will fit which I think they will, as well as the Nakiri Lefty is sending me.
Does anyone have any experience with the above products or anything else they would recommend?
