360 Knife Block 360KB Small (Walnut, 25.4cm Height)

How strong are the magnets and will they damage my knives?

The rare earth magnets are calibrated to hold knives securely without being overpowering. They're strong enough to prevent knives from falling but gentle enough for easy one-handed removal. Unlike traditional knife blocks with slots, the magnetic system won't dull your blades as there's no contact with cutting edges during storage or removal.

What's the maximum knife length this block can accommodate?

The 360KB holds knives up to 25cm (10 inches) in length. Each side of the block measures 25.4cm tall, providing full support for longer chef's knives. The magnetic system works with any blade thickness or style, from thin paring knives to thick cleavers and even kitchen shears.

How many knives can I actually store on this block?

The block has six sides, each 10cm wide, allowing up to three knives per side for a total capacity of 18 knives. In practical use, most people store 12-15 knives comfortably, depending on blade widths. The rotating design ensures easy access to all stored knives regardless of how many you have.

Will this block fit under my kitchen cabinets?

Yes, the 360KB is specifically designed at 25.4cm height to fit under standard upper cabinets. This compact height was chosen after extensive testing to provide the ideal balance between storage capacity and cabinet clearance. The 17.8cm square footprint also minimises counter space usage.

Is the walnut finish durable and how do I maintain it?

The American walnut construction is extremely durable and naturally resistant to moisture. The wood is finished to highlight the natural grain whilst protecting against kitchen conditions. Simply wipe clean with a damp cloth - no special treatments required. The natural wood will develop character over time whilst maintaining its structural integrity.

How stable is the block when removing knives?

The 5kg weight ensures complete stability during use. This intentional weight distribution prevents the block from tipping or sliding when removing knives. You can confidently grab any knife with one hand without the block moving. It's the only freestanding knife block specifically weighted for safety and stability.

Does the rotating mechanism require maintenance?

No maintenance is required for the rotating mechanism. The smooth rotation is built into the design and will continue working effortlessly throughout the product's lifetime. The mechanism is engineered for daily use and won't wear out or become stiff over time. Simply rotate as needed to access your knives.

What's included with the lifetime guarantee?

The lifetime guarantee covers all manufacturing defects and structural issues. If you experience any problems, you can contact Sara (the inventor) directly for resolution. This guarantee reflects the confidence in the handmade construction and quality materials. The makers stand behind their invention with personal customer service and support.
