Magnetic knife block, double-sided, with linoleum front – Colors Block – multiple variants

Which width should I choose?

The width determines how many knives your knife block can hold. All our knife blocks are magnetic on both sides, and the magnets sit in several rows, so the blade makes contact in several places and holds extra securely.

Lay your knives in a row with the spacing you want, measure the total width and divide by 2. That is the minimum width your new knife block should have.

Which knife blocks are the strongest?

All our knife blocks are made with powerful magnets that hold every kitchen knife on the market. There is no difference in magnetic strength between the designs.

Height and space required

All knife blocks are approx. 30 cm high and suit blades up to 30 cm – including long knives such as a sujihiki. The footprint on the counter is the width of the block × 14 cm.

If you have knives with blades longer than 30 cm, we will make a custom solution. Small deviations from the standard sizes are made at no extra charge.

Sizes in cm and inches

All sizes in the shop are given in centimetres. cm → inches: multiply by 0.39 · inches → cm: multiply by 2.54.

Knife blades: 8″ = 20.3 cm · 10″ = 25.4 cm · 12″ = 30.5 cm. For an exact conversion, a quick Google search – e.g. "20 cm in inches" – is the easiest way.

We only use carefully selected FSC certified furniture wood. The primary wood types are oak and walnut.

We finish all products with a food-approved oil.

PLEASE NOTE that we always try to create unique and well-crafted products with an exciting visual expression and play of colors. You should therefore take our photos as a guide and not as a guarantee of how the finished product will appear.

Remember that wood is a living material. No two pieces of wood are the same, so all product photos are indicative.

You can benefit from surfing around our website and seeing examples of products we have made in the different types of wood to get a better impression of the wood's color variations, structure and expression.

If you are in doubt about choosing a type of wood for a product, you are very welcome to contact us to discuss the options. We are happy to advise and inspire 😊

To keep both your knives and your magnetic knife holder or knife block in the best condition, always put the knives back only when they are completely clean and completely dry. Damp knives can damage the surface over time and leave marks.

Wipe your magnetic knife holder or knife block regularly with a slightly damp cloth, and avoid detergents and harsh chemicals. If needed, the surface can be refreshed with a little natural wood oil on a soft cloth.

Avoid placing the product close to strong heat sources or in direct sunlight, as this can dry out the wood and change its colour over time.

With proper care, your magnetic knife holder or knife block will keep its looks and its function for many years.

Real products, honest pictures

With us, craftsmanship, materials and aesthetics are at the heart of everything we do. Our product images are designed to give you an honest and inspiring impression of what you're getting – without unnecessary staging.

The vast majority of product photos in our webshop are therefore taken by us – whether it's a grinder, a magnetic knife holder, a serving board or one of our textiles. The images of our wooden products always show genuine, handmade products that we photograph before they are packed and sent to their new owners.

To give you a better idea of ​​how the products will look in different homes and kitchens, we sometimes insert these original photos into AI-generated rooms or backgrounds. Only the background is artificial – the product itself is never altered or AI-generated. Every grain, edge, color, and detail you see belongs to the physical product we created.

We also occasionally receive photos from satisfied customers who give us permission to use them in the webshop. These photos provide an honest and inspiring insight into how our products look in real homes and environments.

No artificial product renderings. No misleading visual enhancements. Just real craftsmanship, photographed honestly.

Indicative images when choosing a variant

We are constantly expanding our product gallery. As many of our products come in a variety of sizes and variations, we do not yet have images of all of them. The image shown when you select a product primarily illustrates the selected wood type – not necessarily the specific size or design variation.

Every piece of wood is unique

Wood is a living natural material, and our passion is to create unique products with character. The grain patterns and color play will therefore naturally vary from product to product. Please consider our images as guiding inspiration and an indication of the quality we deliver.

If you have any questions, we're happy to help.

Do you have any questions about design, size, wood type or special requests? Do not hesitate to contact us at info@rune-jakobsen.dk so that we can guide you to the right choice before you order.
