two quick questions....

I am about to purchase the knife set that comes with the bamboo block. Will the knives still come with the protective covers so if I want to bring one or two to a show with me I can? Or, do the knives come in the block with no covers?

Also, what is the diff. b/w the large grooved cutting board that is currently in the outlet and the one in the catalog? The pic. on the outlet looks like maybe there's no rubber gripper around the edges, but the desc. says there is....so, is there a diff?

Thanks!
Jen
 
The one in the outlet doesn't have the silicone edge, and it's a little thinner, so it will warp if you leave it in the dishwasher for a dry cycle. The knife set should come with the covers. I think (and someone can correct me if I'm wrong) that the set isn't packaged as a set, it's just there for convenience when ordering. All the components come in their standard packaging.

Thank you! I'm glad about the knives coming with covers! And, I thought the photo in the outlet didn't show the silicone edge, so it threw me off when it was written in the description!
Thanks!;)
 
I just got my knife set, and it did have the covers.
 
The set does come w/ the covers. I got the set for my husband, and he loves it. Also it comes w/ the new scissors which are really nice.

And I think the one w/ the edges is available from the supply order. I think around $18- so same price as outlet for the new one. You might wanna check it out.

Yeah, you want to get the current one. It's better and it's what we now sell.

The knife block and knife set are EACH boxed seperately. WIM, is each is in their own box just as they do when you purchase them individually.
 
Oh BTW, the OLD style of Large Grooved Cutting Board is inferior to the LGCB with the santoprene edges, IMO. They are WAY DIFFERENT - I would recommend purchasing the one off SO. :)
