We are proud to announce the newest addition to The Chopping Block's family of knives: Robert Welch. The new knife line will be unveiled during our Annual Knife Sale in April where all knives will be 20% off, including Shun, Global, Chroma, and Fr. Dick.
Stop by our stores next month to learn about the advantages, designs and workability of each knife line. We'll have plenty of veggies on hand, so you'll be able to test drive the different knives yourself!
Remember, you don't need a 12 piece standard set to be successful in the kitchen. A good chef's knife, paring knife and bread knife are the basis of any collection and will support you through even the most complex recipes.
If you really want to put your knife skills to the test, join us for our upcoming Knife Trunk Show:
April 20, 2013
12pm - 4pm
Lincoln Square
We have a day of slicing, dicing and mincing planned, plus we will introduce our brand new Chef Competition. Two of our most accomplished chefs will be squaring off to see who can do the most with a basket of secret ingredients. Watch this once in a knife-time event live!
Why Robert Welch?
As our long-time customers know, adding a knife line to The Chopping Block's inventory is a big deal. We don't do it often, and we only do so after extensive testing by our chefs. Award-winning
Robert Welch knives are comfortable in your hand while achieving optimum cutting action. With fully forged German stainless steel blades, each knife is designed and created in England. These knives are an incredible value and will be a great fit for any collection.
