Machine-stitched from Cordura, the Wusthof 12-Pocket Knife Roll holds twelve prep knives securely and safely and stores pens and other small items in separate outer pockets. An inner flap covers and separates the knives and offers some additional storage for odds and ends.
The Wusthof knife roll is well-planned with elastic covers that hold knives in place and internal Velcro closures that lock down the corners of the second layer of the roll. More Velcro on the outside of the roll keeps the knife carrier shut tight. The main carrying system is a loop of Cordura strap sewn to the case in a duffel bag style. There’s a pocket for a name tag or business card on the outside of the case, and access to the outside pockets via zippered closures.
The Wusthof knife roll also includes metal D-rings sewn to the ends of the bag, which accept the clips of a shoulder strap. The strap itself is not included with the bag, and the Cordura handle sewn to the bag is much stronger than the shoulder strap system.
Although this bag is good for occasional transport of your good cutlery and serves well for storage, it may not hold up to frequent heavy use. Cordura is a synthetic canvas often used for knife sheaths and tool pouches. While the cloth itself endures sunlight and resists abrasion and is moderately puncture-resistant, the stitching which holds Cordura products together is much more vulnerable to wear and tear. Inspect any weak points — like the D-ring loops for the shoulder strap — regularly before relying on them to support your good tools.
