Just the concept makes me sick to my stomach. Is violence something something to joke about? Aren’t enough violence perpetrated by spouses and ex-spouses already?? Amazon should pull this off their shelves since this is a tasteless poor stab at humor. Pun intended

Yes… marketing can and should be fun, but I’m not finding any humor in the way this product is marketed. Quite simply, it makes light of domestic violence. I am disgusted…
Amazon should take this one off of their site.

Question — If the figure was in the shape of woman with knives going through; would it have as many good reviews?
I seriously doubt it. In fact if the holder did resemble a female figure {ex or no ex} every feminist group, every woman whose been abused, (as a matter of fact EVERY woman period) would fight to have the product banned!!
Better quality knife sets can be purchased for less money. As far as the ex, everybody has a few bad ones (man or woman). If the relationship was so bad that knives come to mind when thinking of the person; well then you should have left a long time ago. You also need to let it go and move on. The faster you do; the happier you will be…and with better quality knives.

This item has not been opened by me as I bought it as a Christmas gift for my brother, so when he opens it I will know more about it. As far as the design and product idea goes it is great! I can’t wait for him to see it.

I saw the knife block in a local store, however I liked this one because it is stainless steel. I looks great on my counter, and the knives cut well.
