Confused About the Bamboo Knife Block and New Knives - Help Please

[kcjodih]

I was just about to order my sample package and I want the bamboo knife block and one of the new knives but I'm confused. The new knife comes with a honing case so does that mean I can't use the block or do I use it and then have the honing case just sitting around? Or is this just for the forged cutlery, in which case I don't need the new knife with honing case since I already have the forged?

I'm confused...

The block is intended for the forged cutlery, but you could probably put the new honing case knives in it. You'd just end up with the case in the drawer, as you mentioned.

Thanks Ann. I decided to do my own homework :blushing: and read my darn changeover kit. So I skipped the honing case knives since I have all the forged and 'just' bought package A, the silicone cake pan, knife block, 5 inch forged knife, and dots stemware.

I think I actually have to say thank goodness the holiday plates and appetizer plates aren't available to order right now because my order was already $290 with tax and shipping

I can't wait until next week though!

I have almost all the forged too, but got the 3" paring knife in the case to take to shows, in case someone is looking for something a little cheaper, then they can see it. I probably won't use it very often, unless my other paring knives are dirty.

Hi there! I completely understand your confusion. The new knife with the honing case is designed specifically for the forged cutlery, so if you already have the forged set, you do not need to purchase the new knife with the honing case. The bamboo knife block is still a great option for storing and organizing your knives. You can also use the honing case separately if you prefer. Let me know if you have any other questions or need further clarification. Happy cooking!
