Thankful that my career is working with my love ❤️ @designtrifecta to make, advertise and market the @360knifeblock #loveyourknives🔪🔪🔪 We are thankful to the chefs @cooksillustrated who tested Henrys unique design against industry leaders and then featured the 360KnifeBlock on @testkitchen 📺 thankful for the @nytimes 🤩 #holidaygiftguide - hard to believe that was two years ago. We are thankful for our early supporter @towncutler for helping test our prototypes and specifically in this video making these #safetyfirst demo #knives - 6 years has flown by! We still make each one by hand and I personally ship all orders. Friends, if you are looking for something special please DM me and we can find a 360KnifeBlock for your #chefgift I have a few seconds at a significant discount, limited editions of cherry and blonde bamboo all ready to ship (and US shipping is always FREE). Link in bio For my fellow self employed friends who are both thankful and cursing the hustle, cheers to a day off 😅🍾 #knifeblock #kitchendesign #chefknife

@decathlonusa opening of the new Potrero store in #sanfrancisco @designtrifecta was commissioned to build rolling check out carts and wood trim surround the entire store. We are thrilled to partner with this fabulous retailer making affordable equipment for all sports.
Meet the classy, beautiful, fun and talented @juliacollindavison in Seattle for the @testkitcheneats festival. 2 days of food, drinks, demos and meeting the delightfully down to earth @testkitchen celebrities 🤩 one of the highlights of my year. She actually shook Henry’s hand and complemented him on engineering the clever @360knifeblock 😝 just WOW
