FAQ

FAQs
What’s the difference between a set, a block, and a case?
A set is a coordinated group of knives sold together. A block is the stand where knives are stored and protected. A case is a rigid or semi-rigid carrying solution designed to transport knives safely – often used by chefs, culinary students, or cooking enthusiasts on the go.
Who should use a knife case?
A knife case is ideal for professional chefs, culinary students, or anyone who enjoys cooking outside the home. It keeps your knives organized, protected, and always ready for use.
How do I choose the right knife block?
It depends on your kitchen space, how many knives you own, and your style. You can choose from vertical blocks, horizontal blocks, or magnetic ones. On AFcoltellerie, you’ll find a full range to compare.
How many knives do I really need in a set?
That depends on your needs. Basic sets typically include 3–5 essential knives (chef’s knife, paring knife, bread knife, carving knife). Professional sets may contain 10 or more tools, such as sharpeners, kitchen scissors, and carving forks.
Is it better to buy a full set or individual knives?
If you’re just starting out or want a complete setup in one go, a set is a practical and cost-effective choice. If you’re experienced, building your own collection piece by piece might suit you better.
Do blocks and cases include knives?
It depends on the product. Some come pre-filled with knives, while others are empty and compatible with most standard knives. Always check the product description to know what’s included.
How do you clean knife blocks and cases?
Wooden blocks should be cleaned with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Knife cases can be wiped down with a mild detergent. Avoid dishwashers or soaking in water.
Can I create a custom set if I don’t find what I’m looking for?
Yes! If the combination of knives, block, or case you’re looking for isn’t listed, feel free to contact us. We’ll help you put together a custom set tailored to your needs and cooking style.
