HANG IT
Sharp Magnetism
Create a magnetic rack to hang your blades.

A while ago I wanted to get a magnetic knife rack for
a set of fancy chef’s knives I’d received as a gift.
This would keep them out of a counter-hogging knife
block or, even worse, the kitchen drawer, and in a convenient,
easy-to-reach place.
Dismayed with the price of a professional rack, I decided to
build my own. Besides being cheaper, it’s moddable and custom-izable, since I can choose the length and the pattern on the
front. I think it’s more stylish than the simple magnetic racks
you can buy at the store, and the softer surface saves wear
and tear on your knives.
