Really you need at least 5 different knives for cooking if you are after something more advaced than omelet.
As for that wooden blocks for knives - IDK, may be you are right, it become popular after hollywood movies. Really not very practical thing since you have to put only clean knives to it, so it is just a long-term storage, not some really useful thing to have all knives at hand during cooking. And storing knives in a drawer a way better since you don't have to guess knives by hand not seend blades.

If you worked in a kitchen, you’d get an ass chewing for putting knives in drawers. Dangerous and dulls the edges.
Exactly this.
