The Ex Voodoo Knife Block

|
When our product scouts started raving on about The Ex Voodoo Knife Block we half expected them to turn up with some kind of Live and Let Die-style Haitian gizmo, covered in skulls, fangs and chicken feathers.
Thankfully there's nothing supernatural about The Ex Voodoo Knife Block, even though it is one of the most amusingly bizarre kitchen accessories we've ever seen. Designed by European designer Raffaele Iannello, The Ex Voodoo Knife Block is a slice above other knife blocks and it's wonderfully unusual in terms of originality and design (no more "sharp" wordplay - we promise!).
Crafted in rich red, black or chrome painted ABS plastic, the highly stylish Voodoo has five strategically-positioned slots in which to place five high quality kitchen knives, which are also included.
Apart from its striking appearance The Ex is a brilliant and strudy kitchen companion, especially if you're used to using one crummy knife to chop, slice, fillet and dice EVERYTHING. The five assorted knives included with the Voodoo are super sleek and guaranteed to bring out your inner Martha.

As you can tell, The Ex Voodoo Knife Display is no chip off the old (knife) block. It's a radical new designer knife rack that no serious (or not so serious) chef should be without. So what are you waiting for? Chop chop!

Absolutely brilliant buy! The stand is impressive and everyone that comes round always says wow! The question is though whose face will be on the man this week? The knives themselves are also well worth the expense as they are as good as chefs knives. All in all an awesome product. 10/10 firebox!

P.S. was here so quick great stuff!! just in time to wrap for crimbo!

Hi everybody, the site is great. I have receive my knife rack in only 9 days, and I live in FRANCE! Quicker than I expected, I thank you very much.

This is the mutts nuts. One of my flatmates finds it hysterical, and the other is slightly disturbed now.
On a practical note, the knives are ace and the stand is stable and well designed - only shame is that the chrome is 30 quid more than the black or red.
Thanks firebox!

Wow! Such a great product, and a great focal point in any kitchen. Great stuff and pleased to see good quality knives. Great stuff.

Bought two for Christmas, great present and very fast delivery to Ireland. Son (27) wondered if knives were sharp (they are) by running finger along the blade! Chrome would be lovely for next present, but at £30 more expensive - no way! Thanks again. Fascinating talking point - people very curious about it!

I get a great feeling of satisfaction when I slide the knives in, my friends understand that instantly and want one immediately!!! Great talking point and knives are really sharp. Pride of place under a light in my kitchen. Love, love, love 'em!!!

Got my Knife block as a birthday pressie and I just love it. Always a good talking point in the kitchen. It's much bigger than I expected and the quality of the knives are superb but be warned they are VERY SHARP !!! Yet another winner from Firebox !!
Martin, Southampton - Dec '07 |
I got mine yesterday and I've been waiting soooo long for the chrome one as I totally refuse to have the tacky looking red and black one. Eerruughhh.... Anyway the chrome is by far the best with a nice retro-come-contemporary look. Thanks yet again Firebox crew.
