Quick Overview: A solid oak angled knife block with six Robert Welch Professional knives included - compact footprint, upright storage, and designed to sit flush against a wall or under a cupboard.

Robert Welch Professional Angle Oak Knife Block Set

Knife storage that works for a real kitchen workspace: the Robert Welch Professional Angle Oak Knife Block uses a vertically angled design to minimise the countertop footprint while keeping six knives upright, visible and immediately accessible. The block is constructed from solid oak and sits on silicone feet for stability, and is sized to fit against the back or side of a worktop, or underneath a wall-mounted cupboard.

This set includes the block and six knives from the Robert Welch Professional range - a forged German DIN 1.4116 stainless steel collection, ice-hardened to Rockwell 57, covering the most commonly used blade types for everyday cooking. Knives are stored blade-up in the angled slots, which protects the edges and keeps them in sight - no rummaging to identify the right knife for the task.

  • Block material: Solid oak on silicone stability feet
  • Design: Vertically angled slots - compact footprint, knives fully visible
  • Placement: Designed to sit against a wall or under wall cupboards
  • Capacity: Six knives
  • Compatibility: Designed exclusively for Robert Welch kitchen knives
  • Set includes: Six Robert Welch Professional knives (see full list below)

What's Included in This Set

  • Angle Oak Knife Block (1)
  • Robert Welch Professional Carving Knife, 22cm (1)
  • Robert Welch Professional Bread Knife, 22cm (1)
  • Robert Welch Professional Chef's Knife, 18cm (1)
  • Robert Welch Professional Santoku Knife, 14cm (1)
  • Robert Welch Professional Kitchen Knife, 14cm (1)
  • Robert Welch Professional Paring Knife, 9cm (1)

Please note: The Angle Oak Knife Block is designed for Robert Welch kitchen knives only. Remove all knives before moving the block, and take care not to tilt it when knives are in place.

What Customers Ask About the Angle Oak Knife Block Set

Will this knife block work with knives from other brands?

Robert Welch specify that the Angle Oak block is designed exclusively for Robert Welch kitchen knives. The slot dimensions are sized to accommodate the Professional range, and using knives from other brands is not recommended. If you already have Robert Welch Signature knives rather than Professional knives, we'd suggest contacting us before purchasing to discuss compatibility, as slot sizing may differ between ranges.

How much worktop space does it take up?

The block measures 220mm wide by 153mm deep - roughly the footprint of an A5 sheet of paper. The angled design means the overall height is 365mm, but that height works in your favour: the block is sized to fit underneath standard wall-mounted cupboards, keeping the knives accessible without projecting far out from the wall. Measure your available space (particularly the clearance under any cupboards) before ordering.

Can I buy just the knife block without the knives?

This listing is for the complete set - block plus six knives. If you're looking for just the block on its own, contact us on 01737 222996 and we'll advise on what's available.

Are the knives in this set the same as buying them individually?

Yes. The knives included are standard Robert Welch Professional range knives - the same products available individually. They carry the same Robert Welch lifetime guarantee as individually purchased Professional knives.

How do I safely move the block once it's set up?

Robert Welch advise removing all knives from the block before moving it. Do not tilt the block while knives are in place. The silicone feet keep it stable on a flat surface but it is not designed to be carried with the knives loaded.

Care & Use Instructions

Block care: Wipe the oak block with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not submerge in water or place in a dishwasher. Occasional application of a food-safe wood oil may help maintain the oak's appearance, though this is not specified by the manufacturer.

Knife care: Hand washing is recommended for all knives in the set to prolong blade life and handle finish. Dry knives before returning them to the block.

Moving the block: Always remove all knives before moving or repositioning the block. Do not tilt the block while knives are loaded.

Placement: Place on a flat, stable surface. The silicone feet are designed to prevent movement on standard worktop surfaces. Designed to sit against a wall or under wall-mounted cupboards.

Safety: Keep out of reach of children. The knives included in this set are subject to UK age restriction - you must be aged 18 or over to purchase.

It is not currently possible to deliver to the Republic of Ireland or mainland Europe. We hope to reinstate this service as soon as possible and apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Rest of the World

If your country is not listed — including the USA, Australia, and other destinations — this is most likely because couriers charge by volumetric weight: a combination of package size and weight that makes standard online rates impractical to calculate automatically.
