ALL KNIFE BLOCKS

THE PERFECT HOME FOR YOUR KNIFE SET

When kept neat and tidy and stored safely away in a knife block, your knives will each have their very own home. Chef’s knives, garnishing knives, bread knives - they all have a slot in the knife block that’s just for them. This way, your knives are kept properly stored and are also easy for you to find when you need them.
Protect your blades and protect yourself

Remember: storing your sharp knives safely away in a knife block means that when you reach for them, you’ll always grasp hold of them in the right place, by the handle. With your new knife block in place, you’ll never accidentally grab a knife by the blade again. As in all aspects of life, safety comes first and knife blocks play an important role in making sure you abide by this principle.

Block storage is best

Knife blocks are specially designed for storing knives, and for good reason: not only is storing your knives in a drawer together with lots of other cutlery unsafe for you, but it can also shorten their lifespan. It’s better to put them in a knife block, where every knife has its very own place.

Help your knives last longer

As we explain in our article on knife care, storage plays a key role. If you were to store your knives in your cutlery drawer together with an array of other objects, then they’d all bump and bang into each other, but if you were to store them in a knife block, they’d be kept safe and sound and out of harm’s way. This protects the blades and is a sensible investment for making your knives last longer.

SELF-SHARPENING KNIFE BLOCKS

Appropriate storage with a high level of safety - what more could you ask for? What about an automatic knife-sharpening function? If you opt for one of the ZWILLING self-sharpening knife blocks, then that’s exactly the added bonus you’ll get hidden in the slots.
