The Ex: A Unique Knife Holder

We may not like to admit it, but at some point in each of our lives there comes a time when we just can't help but wish ill on an ex-boyfriend or girlfriend. Most of us never act on these feelings, preferring instead to bottle up the negative emotions and store them in the pit of our stomachs like a ball of burning oil. Well, bottle up no longer! The Ex is the perfect kitchen tool for the newly single and seething. 

This unique knife block by Raffaele lannello is shaped like a shiny plastic person, with five slots throughout the body where you can insert the knives. The body is made from strong ABS plastic, so it can withstand a beating. Each of the knives is made of tough and durable stainless steel, so they will last a lifetime. Inside the slots for the knives there are plastic sleeves to keep your knives razor-sharp, and magnets to hold the knives in place. The knife holder comes with a Chef Knife, Bread Knife, Carver, Utility Knife, and a Parer, each with an ergonomically designed handle for comfort and precision. In addition, the entire set comes with a 25-year warranty, so you can be sure it will hold up longer than a regular wooden knife block.

The reviews for The Ex knife holder are mostly positive. People love the fact that the knife block is the center of attention any time guests visit. They also like the fact that the knives are sharp and strong, and the body is sturdy. There are rubber pads on the base of the body, so the knife set will not slip or slide around. People also like the fact that the body comes in many different colours such as red, black, blue, orange, green, and even chrome. A few people commented that the knife holder is quite large, so you need ample counter or table space to house it. That being said, many people like the size as it draws more attention to the unique design. This knife set comes highly recommended as a gift item.
