Store kitchen knives safely and conveniently, and protect the sharpness of their blades, with this attractive maple-wood knife block by J.K. Adams. Crafted of solid maple from sustainable sources with a natural mineral oil finish, the block measures 9-1/2 inches high by 9 inches wide by 6-1/2 inches deep and holds up to thirteen knives of almost any shape and size. Slots are arranged in two neat rows: an upper row of seven large slots that accommodate large cutlery such as chef's knives and carvers, and a lower row of six small slots, perfect for storing a set of steak knives, or various paring and utility knives. The upper slots extend down the front of the block and are staggered with the small slots so that knives can be removed and replaced at an angle with ease. This design also allows the block to be placed under a low-hanging cabinet or other tight spot without impeding access to the knives. Unlike traditional knife blocks, the innovative open-sided design of this block allows for air circulation and cleaning of the interior, resulting in a more sanitary storage environment for your knives. Wipe surfaces clean with a damp cloth as needed. To protect and extend the life of the wood, periodically apply J.K. Adams Mineral Oil Wood Conditioner (sold separately). J.K. Adams products are lovingly crafted in Vermont, USA and offer a five-year guarantee: if a product does not live up to expectations in material, workmanship, or function, it will be replaced - no questions asked.

Bodum Bistro Universal Knife Block, Black Feature

  • Convenient storage allows the knives to be readily accessible on the counter
  • The myriad of fine plastic sticks allows tight and secure universal knife placement
  • The fine plastic sticks are removable and dishwasher safe for easy cleaning
  • Plastic sticks do not dull the knives when inserting them into the block

First of all, knives are one of the most important tools in a kitchen. For some people they even become an obsession. Understandably so, because after having worked with a state-of-the-art knife there is no going back. Secondly, knives need to be handy - right there on the kitchen counter for easy access and yet safely stored at the same time. The Bistro Knife Block does both beautifully: it keeps your everyday paring, utility, chef's and bread knives handy and safe. The inside of the Knife Block is made of a myriad of very fine plastic sticks allowing any knife to sit anywhere in the block - tight and secure. The block's casing is made of plastic and its silicone feet anchor it firmly. It comes in black, red, green, orange, white and purple, making it easier than ever to match any kitchen's color scheme.
