Knife sets with block

Knife sets with knife block

A knife block keeps your knives to hand and protects the edges. These sets contain the knives, a honing steel and the matching block: your kitchen is fully equipped in one step.

The sets

• 7-piece knife set BLACK: santoku, chef's, carving, utility and paring knife, honing steel and a dark brown acacia block. Black G10 handles.
• 6-piece knife block KITA by Cangshan®: chef's, carving, utility and paring knife, kitchen scissors and honing steel in a maple block with a blue finish and stainless steel base.
• 6-piece knife block MAYA by Cangshan®: the same contents with ebony handles and a walnut block with a stainless steel base.

What's the honing steel for?

A honing steel realigns the fine edge, which easily rolls over in everyday use. Used regularly, it significantly extends the time until the next sharpening. If the edge is really blunt, a whetstone will help.

Frequently asked questions about sets with knife block

Block or magnetic strip?

The block stands on the worktop and needs no fitting. The magnetic strip saves worktop space and lets the knives dry better. Both protect the edges.

What's the difference between KITA and MAYA?

The contents are identical. KITA has G-10 handles and a blue maple block, MAYA ebony handles and a walnut block.

How do I clean the knife block?

Wipe it with a slightly damp cloth. Only put dry knives in the block.
