I know how magnets work and Ive never seen a knife fall off one of these but they still give me low grade anxiety.
Them Final Destination films ruined me.
I hung a row of those to display my wife’s vintage lunchbox collection.
Mods: None of these look dull at all!
This whole setup is metal!
When placing a knife on a magnetic holder, you lead with the spine then rotate until the flat hits the holder. The edge apex never touches the holder. It won’t dull your knives if you don’t slam the apex into it.
Yeah you did!
Interesting when I had something like that I had the pointy bit up.
Yea, seems like if you drop it you will ruin your knife.
Why tip-down instead of handle-down?
For the same reason you carry anything tip down.
Can’t tell if it’s the case in this photo, but mine hangs over my work area so handle down was definitely the safer option…
…also more natural to grab
My partner flipped them the other way around, with the handles on the bottom. I basically accept that she’s smarter than me and defer to her in such matters. 😆
Aestheticslly they’d look nice alternating up and down as compromise.
Living dangerous, I see
Life on the edge.
You only have three knives?
(You can’t see it, but I’m making my Smug Face.)
Haha. I promise that there are more but they were in the dishwasher. I was too excited to wait for the complete set to make a photo. 😅
Sharp knives in dishwasher? gasp
This has been waiting months, and I installed it today to avoid a more difficult and important project. 😉
This is the way
