I need your help!

A host ordered the Bamboo Knife Block set and she LOVES it. Now she's asking what are the sizes for the slots because she wants to fill them in. It has 16 slots but the set came with only 8 knives. Does anyone know what they are?

I am just trying to save a phone call to the PC HQ :-).

Thanks!

We don't have a different knife for each slot. They made the block bigger than it needed to be. They just introduced a new knife (available Sept 1), so that is one she will be able to add.
