Tyrolit Life utilizes oak wood sourced from local forests for its premium knife blocks. The surface, sealed with oil, is not only aesthetically pleasing but also durable and easy to maintain.

Crafted in Tyrol, the Tyrolit Life knife block comes in two color options – available as a knife block in black or silver. Beneath the oak lies a magnetic strip, ensuring your kitchen knives are securely held in place.

A magnetic knife block ensures that your knives are always securely and safely stored. If a knife block provides too much leeway for individual knives, any jarring of the block can cause long-term damage to your blades. Moreover, there’s a risk that your kitchen knife set may not fit perfectly into the knife block’s slots. Here, the magnetic knife block offers a distinct advantage.

Made of oak, the magnetic knife block can hold up to 6 knives with a maximum blade length of 23 cm. For instance, it can accommodate a bread knife, chef’s knife, vegetable knife, cheese knife, filleting knife, and Santoku knife.

Your blades are magnetically secured, ensuring they’re stored safely and gently while remaining easily accessible for your next use.

The Tyrolit Life knife block impresses with an integrated knife sharpener that ensures a perfect sharpening angle. It is precisely pre-set at 15 degrees for European knives, offering both stability and exceptional sharpness.

Mounted on the newly developed Z-support, the sharpening stone features two different grit sizes. The ability to sharpen on both sides significantly simplifies the sharpening process for both right-handed and left-handed users: simply drag the knife across the segment at a right angle to the base’s surface. This kitchen tool ensures your knives are always razor-sharp. However, knives with serrated edges are not suitable for sharpening on this stone.

Like all Tyrolit Life sharpening systems, the knife block Plus has two handmade, ceramic sharpening stones in the proven grain sizes 400 and 800 (according to FEPA).

For the rough grinding, first use the coarse and darker side marked “Sharp”. For fine sharpening and to give the knives a lasting sharpness, repeat the process with the lighter side of the sharpening stone marked “Finish”.

Moisten the sharpening segments under running water for the best possible sharpening result. To get a perfectly sharpened knife, place it horizontally at the tip of the sharpening stone and pull it several times in a gentle arc from top to bottom, as needed. Be sure to evenly traverse the entire blade from shank to tip.

To sharpen the other side of the blade, the Z-beam is removed from the device, rotated through 180° and fixed in the recess provided at the lower end. Then repeat the described application on this blade side. Finally, gently wipe the knife clean with a damp cloth to remove debris from the blade.
