This is what I’m using to disable core blocks, and WooCommerce blocks. The core blocks I want to use are at the bottom.

function remove_default_blocks($allowed_blocks){
    // Get widget blocks and registered by plugins blocks
    $registered_blocks = WP_Block_Type_Registry::get_instance()->get_all_registered();

    // Disable Widgets Blocks
    unset($registered_blocks['core/calendar']);
    unset($registered_blocks['core/legacy-widget']);
    unset($registered_blocks['core/rss']);
    unset($registered_blocks['core/search']);
    unset($registered_blocks['core/tag-cloud']);
    unset($registered_blocks['core/latest-comments']);
    unset($registered_blocks['core/archives']);
    unset($registered_blocks['core/categories']);
    unset($registered_blocks['core/latest-posts']);
    unset($registered_blocks['core/shortcode']);

    // Disable WooCommerce Blocks
    unset($registered_blocks['woocommerce/handpicked-products']);
    unset($registered_blocks['woocommerce/product-best-sellers']);
    unset($registered_blocks['woocommerce/product-category']);
    unset($registered_blocks['woocommerce/product-new']);
    unset($registered_blocks['woocommerce/product-on-sale']);
    unset($registered_blocks['woocommerce/product-top-rated']);
    unset($registered_blocks['woocommerce/products-by-attribute']);
    unset($registered_blocks['woocommerce/featured-product']);

    // Now $registered_blocks contains only blocks registered by plugins, but we need keys only
    $registered_blocks = array_keys($registered_blocks);

    // Merge allowed core blocks with plugins blocks
    return array_merge(array(
        'core/image',
        'core/paragraph',
        'core/heading',
        'core/list'
    ), $registered_blocks);
}

add_filter('allowed_block_types', 'remove_default_blocks');
