new knife block

today i picked up my custom made knife block.



this is the start of my new good knife collection.

it is made from american walnut and is made by a very talented friend of mine John Quan.

the design is a good one because you can add more sections for more knives as your collection grows. each section is held together with magnets.

this is the block with one of my not so good knives it it now. another reason this design is good is because it does not rest the knife on the blade dulling it.

it looks great too. all i need to do now is save for the kitchen knives, but this is a good inspirational place to start i thought.
