Robert WelchSignature Filled Knife Block & Sharpener Set, 6 Piece

Designed with a stainless steel cap and magnetised fittings, this Robert Welch knife block holds six kitchen knives and includes the Robert Welch Signature Knife Sharpener. The knife block itself is made from ABS plastic, which is weighted for stability and is easy to clean. The cap is made from polished stainless steel and has individually shaped slots to match each knife as well as a sharpening mechanism in the centre.

Choosing the right kitchen knife, the best knife for the task at hand, makes preparing a meal easier. Selecting the perfect knife for slicing, dicing or chopping allows you to work with accuracy and cut consistently, which helps food to cook more evenly. The specially hardened, high-quality, German stainless steel used for the Signature knives is durable, easy to clean and maintain. The Robert Welch Signature knife is a precision tool, hand-honed and sharpened by master craftsmen to give you many years of optimum use. Robert Welch have worked with professional chefs to develop a range of knives that give you comfort in the hand and the optimum cutting action. Each knife has been individually constructed for its specific task in food preparation. The handles and blades are set at the best angle to minimise fatigue. The knife block with sharpener has a 10-year guarantee and the knives have a lifetime guarantee.

This knife block comes complete with an integrated ceramic wheel knife sharpener, to keep blade edges honed and sharp. A magnetic locator in each slot draws the spine of the knife to the block, preventing damage to the cutting edge when inserting or removing the knives. The knife block is designed to hold six knives. After 12-24 months, depending on frequency of use, it's recommended that you change the ceramic sharpening wheel in the built-in knife sharpener to maintain your knife's cutting edge to a high standard.

The knives have won a number of international awards including an iF design award (Germany), the GOOD DESIGN™ award (US) a red dot design award (Germany), the Excellence in Housewares 'Cutting Edge' award (UK) 2009 and 2010 and a 'Product of the Year' award (UK).
