Product Information
Full details
The Vogue Knife Block is designed for professional chefs and home cooks who prioritize organized, safe, and accessible kitchen storage for their cutlery collection. Its primary benefit is the combination of a compact footprint with nine distinct slots that protect blade edges from dulling against other utensils; however, users should note that the block is sized for standard chef knives and may not accommodate oversized specialty blades or cleavers.

FAQs
Can I wash the Vogue Knife Block in the dishwasher?
No. The wooden construction will warp, crack, or degrade if submerged in water or put through a dishwasher cycle.
What are the dimensions of the block?
The block measures 260mm in height, 130mm in width, and 170mm in depth.
Does this block include the knives?
No, this is a storage solution only; the knives pictured in professional settings are typically sold separately.
Will this block dull my knives?
No, the wooden slots are designed to protect blade edges. Unlike metal or hard plastic holders, wood is softer and helps maintain sharpness.
How do I clean the interior slots?
Use a can of compressed air to blow out any debris that may have collected in the slots. Avoid inserting wet or damp knives into the slots to prevent internal mold growth.
Troubleshooting
Knife does not fit into the slot
Ensure the knife blade is not wider than the slot capacity; do not force oversized blades as this may split the wooden interior.
Block is sliding on the counter
Ensure the surface is clean and dry. Consider placing a small non-slip rubber mat underneath the base for added stability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Vogue Knife Block is straightforward: simply place the unit on a flat, stable surface in your kitchen. Ensure the block is positioned away from direct heat sources and constant moisture to preserve the wood finish.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a clean, slightly damp cloth. Never submerge the block in water or put it in the dishwasher, as this can cause the wood to warp or crack.
- Maintenance: Periodically use a food-safe mineral oil to treat the wood and maintain its luster.
- Compatibility: The block is best suited for standard culinary knives. If a knife feels tight, avoid forcing it, as this can damage the internal structure of the block.
