Strong and Secure Knife Storage: The MÄNNKITCHEN 18 Inch Magnetic Knife Strip is uniquely powerful, featuring rare earth Neodymium magnets that offer 10 times more pulling power than traditional ferrite magnets. This magnetic knife holder is specially designed to securely hold large and heavy knives, such as the oversized MK9 chef knife, which other magnetic strips may struggle to support. Blade-Friendly Design: Unlike metal magnetic strips that can scratch your blades, our natural Black Walnut wooden holder is gentle on your knives, ensuring they remain sharp and undamaged. Antibacterial Properties: Crafted from black walnut wood, this magnetic knife strip boasts natural antibacterial qualities, providing a hygienic storage solution for your kitchen knives. Easy Installation: Mounting this knife strip is a breeze with the included hardware – two screws with drywall anchors. Simply drill two level holes 15 inches apart on the wall for secure installation (not suitable for mounting on refrigerators). Unmatched Magnetism: The MK9 knife’s weight and size posed a challenge for standard magnetic strips, but our innovative use of rare earth Neodymium magnets ensures a secure hold for even the heaviest knives. The black walnut construction adds durability and elegance to your kitchen, making it the ideal storage solution for your prized knives.
