The Wusthof Under-Cabinet Swinger block can be mounted very easily with a drill and three included screws. These secure the block's "spacer" to the cabinet's bottom.
Between the spacer, (the handles being lower than the cabinet), and the actual block, two steel plates are connected to a pivoting device that ensure the block to be rotated 360 degrees. When the user needs a knife, a single push with a finger will bring the handle from beneath the cabinet.
The Wusthof Under-cabinet Swinger Block is 10.25 inches long, 7.25 inches wide, 3.5 inches high. It’s made of oak for sturdiness and has eight slots for knives with blades up to 10 inches long. A ninth slot is in place for a sharpening steel.
The knives are securely kept in their slots by magnetic strips and also safely prevent any damages or abrasions of the blades.
