Maybe it seems like madness, but hey! we did it anyway...
We’re not sure if you’ve figured this out yet! But we're mad about all things BBQ. So why not open up a BBQ shop, in the heart of the country, in the middle of winter! Oh go on then.
The Blok BBQ Shop opened its doors in October 2024. Stocking brands like Gozney, YETI and Tubby Toms; making us the perfect place for everything you’ll ever need for your outdoor cooking adventures.

In 2015 Ben was asked to appear in a National advertising campaign for Kettle Chips. It featured a number of crafts people doing what they do best. Making stuff.
Ben Edmonds first tried forging knives after seeing a YouTube video. Now he makes a living from Blok Knives, crafting quality blades by hand.
