Individual slots keep blades separated and protected from contact with each other, which is the most effective way to preserve edge sharpness in storage. Blade lengths up to 25cm are accommodated, covering most standard kitchen knife collections regardless of brand. Available in natural bamboo and matt black plastic, both at £39.50, the two finishes suit different kitchen aesthetics. Grunwerg has been based in Sheffield since 1948, with the Rockingham Forge range drawing on the city's cutlery-making heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e20-slot capacity for blades up to 25cm: Holds up to 20 knives with blade lengths from 20 to 25cm, covering most standard kitchen knife collections including chef's knives, bread knives, and carving knives.\n\u003cbr\u003eSloped design for easy access: The sloped block profile angles the knife handles towards the user, making each knife easier to grip and draw without having to reach across the full height of the block.\n\u003cbr\u003eChoice of bamboo or matt black plastic: Available in natural bamboo for a warm worktop finish or matt black plastic for a contemporary look, both at the same price point.\n\u003cbr\u003eIndividual slots to protect blades: Each knife sits in its own slot, keeping blades separated and protected from contact with other knives, which helps maintain edge sharpness over time.\n\u003cbr\u003eSheffield heritage brand: Grunwerg has been based in Sheffield since 1948, drawing on the city's cutlery-making tradition through its Rockingham Forge range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCapacity: 20 knives\n\u003cbr\u003eBlade length: Up to 25cm\n\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Bamboo\n\u003cbr\u003eDishwasher safe: No, hand wash only\n\u003cbr\u003eTop dimensions: W270mm x D110mm x H250mm\n\u003cbr\u003eBase dimensions: W110mm x D200mm\n\u003cbr\u003eMPN: KB-4422WB\n\u003cbr\u003eEAN: 5019311946209\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCare instructions:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eExterior: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth.

The slots are sized to fit blades up to 25cm in length, which covers most standard kitchen knives regardless of brand. If you have particularly wide blades or knives with unusually thick spines, it is worth checking the slot dimensions against your specific knives before buying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHow do I clean it?\n\u003cbr\u003eHand wash only. Do not put the block in the dishwasher. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. For the interior slots, a bottle brush or pipe cleaner can be used to remove any debris that accumulates over time. Allow to dry fully before replacing knives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat is the difference between the bamboo and plastic versions?\n\u003cbr\u003eBoth hold the same number of knives and are the same price. Bamboo is a natural material with a warm grain that suits a traditional or neutral kitchen aesthetic. The matt black plastic version has a more contemporary, minimal look and may be easier to wipe clean on the exterior surface. The interior slot construction is the same in both.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Grunwerg","offers":[{"title":"Bamboo","offer_id":57102565245306,"sku":"023135","price":39.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Matt Black Plastic","offer_id":57102565278074,"sku":"023134","price":39.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/aolcookshop.co.uk\/products\/grunwerg-rockingham-forge-sloped-knife-block-20-slot","provider":"Art of Living Cookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
