      If you keep the knife block in a kitchen, you will get grease in there and everything that finds its way into the grooves will stick to it and stay there.. dust, bugs, bacteria.

        yeap even if u clean the knifes,

        as Kent say, there would be dust, bacteria from toilet, whatever create that likes dark damp places…

        I read some where on the net, those blocks are full of bacteria,

        it is better to just put the knifes in the drawer

        This your place? - http://resources0.news.com.au/images/2014/01/17/1226804/2821…

        This is why you can use knife blocks like this - http://www.victoriasbasement.com.au/Product/Details/76579
        Offer the convenience, suit all knifes and can be easily cleaned with the rods getting placed in a dishwasher.

    Some wooden knife blocks fold open so you can get in there to clean it.

    This does not look like one of those, so I wouldn't use it.

      even if u could clean it,

      it would be a pain to clean it often, else there would be a continued bacteria build up..

      Just use store the knifes in a drawer

  How does the Takashi 7 piece set differ from the Katana 6 piece set deal which was posted a few days ago, other than the different block and the Sharpener?

  I like global knives, but wouldn't buy a knife block as you end up with a bunch of knives you didn't really need. Better to buy the exact lengths that are right for you.l. Also, store them on a magnetic strip.
