Knife Blocks by Jean

Knife Blocks by Jean - all to the Jean Turner Standard
"...have always looked to overseas exotics for my handles. Since I started buying your wood
I see I should have been looking closer to home. I honestly never knew that yew could be so beautiful.."

On this page you will find all the blocks I have listed in my shop. These include general, scandi and firesteel blocks.

Dimensions refer to actual size of the wood shown - see item size notes for further details.
I will cut these through (at a cost of �1 per block) if you ask me very nicely and accept the risk should anything go wrong.
