Sustainably Made Knife Holders

'The Road Block' Was Designed to Preserve Natural Resources

Samura Premium Kitchen Knives has launched 'The Road Block,' which the company claims is "the world's first eco-conscious knife holder."

The minimalist knife holder complements any modern kitchen, with a sleek and simple design that is rust-proof, supportive, 100 percent recyclable, and built for durability. Samura crafts The Road Block from recycled steel, and relies on local craftsmen and small businesses to manufacture them. Due to the exposed design, consumers will always know which knife they're grabbing. With its sustainable crafting methods, the knife holder does not eat into natural resources, and supplies consumers with kitchenware that will last a lifetime.

The Road Block is available from Samura's web store, along with the company's design-forward kitchen knives, cutting boards, and other accessories.
