I don't think he's making knife blocks anymore. He turned me away last year.
So, are you doing knife blocks or not?

Rather than dilute the cutting board efforts and take away from what is my bread and butter, I decided to let the knife blocks go and concentrate on what I believe I can do best.
A lot of us have the same requirements in a knife block, mainly, plenty of slots for gyutos and sujis in the 240mm+ size. Most commercial blocks have way too many small slots for crap we dont own/use, and not enough big slots or slots that arent big enough period. Maybe we could come up with a generic design that works for most people's specifications and Dave could do a "group buy" of a set amount (5-10?) of the same design. That way the parts are interchangeable and a bunch of them could be worked on at once.
Note: I have not discussed this with David, it was just something that popped into my head while reading this.
Wanna race?Glad a recent UPS shipments is heading my way!! Should get here Thursday.
It's a 'mid-size' -- not one of the 40+ slot ones.
So for those of us dummies who missed out on one of David's killer blocks, where should we look next? Particularly if we want kind of a nice one? Anyone have any ideas.
I'd build one myself if I wasn't about to be moving and had a heap of other **** to do?
Sadly, I ended up buying a 35? slot block marketed by Wusthof. It was cheap and it looks okay but I would have rather spent more for a BoardSMITH. I have one already and it never fails to impress almost as much as the blades it holds.
I've heard that one more than once before. I've uttered those same words myself... :rofl2:...I want to make sure that I have enough and large enough slots that I am covered for future purchases.
Received a nice box from Boardsmith a little earlier this afternoon! :spin chair:Glad a recent UPS shipments is heading my way!! Should get here Thursday.
