Walnut Magnetic Knife Holder with Multi Purpose Functionality as Knife Magnet, Knife Strip, Magnetic Organizer- Securely Holds Your Knives & Keeps Your Kitchen Organized- Made in USA- 12 Inch

I bought this for a glass subway tile backsplash knowing I would not drill anything. Heavy duty Gorilla tape initially did not adhere well to rear of the walnut holder, but a second try using 9 pieces each 1-7/8 inches long installed vertically on the back of the magnetic holder worked. With the clear protector still on the pieces of two-sided tape, place the wooden holder on a flat surface (back down on a kitchen counter) and apply pressure for an hour or so. Carefully remove the clear protector material (not as simple as it might seem), then position the piece near the desired location, press it in place and you are done.

I don't often write a review, but am of course always paying attention to other reviews. I am a hobbyist woodworker and seriously considered just making this item myself, but the reasonableness of the price made me just buy it. I'm glad I did. I must say that the magnets are incredibly strong. I have no worries that my knives, regardless of how big, will stay securely in place. This was my primary concern both for safety and care of my knives. Having said that, as a woodworker, I pay close attention to the craftsmanship. I can't imagine making this any better myself. In fact, I don't think I could. Beautiful grain, invisible seam, flawless finish...all trademarks of a skilled craftsman and somebody who CARES about their product. I would not hesitate to buy again!

I had to be a bit creative, as the place I wanted to install the holders wasn't wide enough.I purchased them 2 years ago, and they are still working fine. Magnet is solid, can be used for any 10+ inch knives even with full bolster and heavy handles like wusthof.Advice: Turn the knife sharp side to yourself (90 degrees against the holder) when taking off the knife so the sharpen side won't impact the holder and your knife won't chip, or harm the wooden holder.Wood > Metal for knife holders.

You can find a knife holder just about anywhere for cheaper, however what you can't find anywhere else is quality, craftsmanship, and made in America for this price. My wife and I are trying to buy more American products as time goes on because these are people just like us who have the American dream and they need support. Off topic....I have used a couple other knife holders in the past. 1. Ikea - Works fine till you move then breaks and dulls your knives. 2. One from Target (wont mention the name), which worked fine IF you hung your knives upside down so the hilt stopped them from falling (dangerous). Not only do I not have a problem with that issue here, this magnet almost pulled the first drywall screw I used out of the wall when I removed my knife. I readjusted my poor handyman skills and voila, it sits perfect. The holes for the screws to fit in work really well. Find a screw that has the same thickness as the slot and this thing snaps snugly right into it. The wood quality is more than I would have expected and would look right at home in a million dollar home. The package includes the knife magnet block, drywall anchors and bolts. Easy to install, easy to use, and sexy as heck!PS: Anna don't drink too much after this review.

I searched long and hard for a quality walnut heavy-duty magnetic knife bar and this one offered on Amazon exceeds my expectations. Not only is the wood a beautiful addition to my kitchen, the magnet is powerful enough to securely hold a 10" 3lb chefs knife and 4 other heavy steel knives with zero wobble nor give. Is amazing technology as the magnets are completely embedded in the walnut and any seams are invisible. While I'm sure there are more expensive options out there, this is an outstanding magnet knife bar at a reasonable price (and I am a former designer with exquisite taste for the finer things in life ;) .The walnut wood is just beautiful but as with all wood, has normal pattern variations on the piece you'll receive. As I accidentally ordered 2, I was able to choose from both items then return the other. Suggest you do the same as the wood used on each piece is drastically different and personal preferences are varied. Also recommend using a natural food friendly conditioning oil (such as olive, sunflower or coconut) to keep the finish looking as new as wood as it may suffer discoloration from the knives over time.The included install kit comes complete with a template, plastic drywall screws, 2 each of different sized install screws, a matching wood spacer (for wall out of plumb) and installation instructions. As I installed into the side of my plywood cabinets, I wasn't worried about the weight nor pressure, but recommend purchasing metal drywall anchors/mollies if installing in drywall as the plastic ones included will inevitably pull away with consistent use of the bar and/or with heavy steel knives.Overall, this magnet bar is outstanding in beauty and quality and I highly recommend.

I was really excited to get this and put up some knives for my wife. So I’m mounting this onto some tile backsplash in my kitchen and using epoxy because I didn’t want to drill in the tile. I held it up using masking tape. The masking tape clearly removed the stain. Big buzz kill because besides that this thing is great. Solid craftsmanship just the stain getting removed by masking tape really sucked.

There is no finish to protect the knife block and it is showing wear in scratches and scrapes after only a few weeks of use. I take very good care of my knives and always make sure to remove and return them gently, but scratches still appear.

This is my second time purchasing this item. The first i used in my bathroom(i know) for small metal clippers and scissors. I found that the magnets were very strong so i gave it a try so i could eliminate my knife block. Totally strong enough for knives. I love that this is made of real wood, looks great, and also made in USA. I am not sure what else they make but i would love to see.Andrew
