Too Many Knives for my block!

I had too many knives to fit into my Cutco Block
we looked into buying a Larger Block from Cutco....
BUT, they want over $300 for the larger block...
Mike went to work figuring out a "Custom Block" for our knives...

He already had plenty of Oak in his shop
so he started gluing .....

and cutting grooves just the right size for the knives.....

drilling perfect holes for the forks.............

we were so excited when it started looking like a knife block!

our "CUSTOM" knife block......
stamped with Mike's Hand Crafted stamp.
It is so great.
Thank you, Honey
