Combined butcher block and cutlery cabinet

Description

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of my new design for a combined butcher block and cutlery cabinet looking at one end, the front side, and the top thereof with the drawer partially open.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view thereof looking _at the other end, the front, and the bottom thereof with the drawer partially open.

The rear side is substantially identical to the front with the exception that the upper and lower horizontal segments are both stationary and there is no hardware thereon.

The design has the characteristic feature of appearing to be a substantially solid butcher block when the cutlery drawer is in its closed position.
