Knife Block | In 2005, I decided that I needed a nice knife block for the RÖSLE knives I was going to buy. After scouring many shops I was still not satisfied, so I decided to design the knife block myself.

Shotokan Knife Blocking Technique I got in contact with a Finnish carpenter, friend of a friend, who is now a journalist, and he agreed to produce the knife block for the modest sum of EUR 340. In particular, the front and rear wooden pieces extend 10 mm further down so that even wet knives can be introduced and the water will not stick underneath the device.
