Good knife case for the price May 16, 2007
I have purchased two of these cases: one for myself and one for a colleague after having seen mine. I like the set-up of the case and the fact that it will hold more knives than the more expensive models. Mine currently holds 15 knives, a cleaver, two steels, a spatula and a honing stone...and I still have room for more (albeit with a little doubling up!) I like how the handle slots are mostly all on one side for the big and long bladed-knives...it makes opening up the case easier and knife selection a breeze, knowing you won't cut your fingers pulling your knives out of their slots. The section for the smaller blades is a little more compact and there's an elastic strip in the center, supposedly to hold down the tips...I don't use it; I don't see the point (no pun intended).

In general I really like this case. However, there are a few things that I would change in the design to make it function better for me. First, there is no shoulder strap and since I carry a large amount of knives around, this case gets pretty heavy and somewhat bulky. It would be nice to be able to sling a strap over my shoulder and push the case behind me to free up my hands. I'll figure something out. And secondly, the zippered section on the backside of the case is a rather skinny affair that really doesn't carry much. Currently my honing stone goes in there and not much else. It would be nice if it was expandable then maybe I wouldn't have to carry a tool box with me (or maybe I just have too much stuff). Also, the mechanism for holding the knives in place is an elastic and mesh pocket system. The mesh for the pocket is a great idea since sometimes knives go back in place a little wet and the mesh allows for the water to evaporate. Works great so far except that elastic can wear out eventually and then what holds the knives securely!?! Again I'll figure something out.

Aside from these rather minor complaints I think this case is a good deal. The price is right, and it accommodates a large quantity of knives as well as an assortment of blade sizes and handle shapes. It certainly works well for me.

Nice Bag, Looks Good April 4, 2007
Nice Bag, Looks good. I Wish the embroidery was Scotch Guarded. It provides easy access to my equipment, although the key is kind of tiny on my keyring. Such a tiny key is hard to use. A shoulder strap would have been nice, but overall I really like it.

Great case with plenty of room for assorted knives. I doubt I will ever use the lock but the latches keep the case closed well. The case looks much better than the picture.

I wanted a case that had sturdier sides than the "roll", as I am on the road with it a lot. I love this case...it has a lot of room, although, LOL, I could always use more! I have had this on the road for the summer, and it still looks great. My only critique, and request is for a shoulder strap. If they make one, I would be happy to buy it. It is inconvenient to only have the hand handle when I am in and out of catering trucks. Other than that....awesome.
