Knives are perhaps our most important kitchen utensil. And anyone who has invested in an expensive set wants to get as much use out of it as possible. Proper knife storage is crucial. That's why we offer a selection of magnetic wooden knife blocks that are not only practical and look great but also keep your knives sharper for longer. Explore our products and find the right knife block with magnetic properties for your kitchen.

What is a magnetic knife block?

Everyone is familiar with knife blocks for the kitchen. These practical wooden, porcelain, or plastic blocks can accommodate knives of different sizes, saving space while keeping them handy while cooking.
Knife blocks with magnetic properties offer all of this, but take it to the next level:

• You can not only put the knives into the block, but also attach them to its outside.
• Strong magnets are incorporated into the block to hold the knives in place.
• Either you choose a one-sided version or the double-sided magnetic knife block.
• This looks particularly sophisticated, especially with the S-shaped blocks that you can find in our shop.

Advantages of magnetic knife blocks

When searching for the right product, the question quickly arises: what distinguishes the best magnetic knife block? Learn here what the most important features of magnetic knife blocks are:

• With knife blocks with a magnetic surface, you can see the entire kitchen utensil and not just the handle of the knife.
• This way you can immediately recognize which knife it is and you do not have to pull several knives out of the kitchen drawer before you find the right one.
• Depending on your needs, you have the right knife in your hand.

You may be concerned that using magnetic knife blocks will damage your knives' blades. The opposite is true:

• The blades become blunt less quickly because they do not rub against wood when pulled out of the slots, as is the case with conventional knife blocks.
• In addition, the knives are not exposed and without a cover in drawer compartments.
• Furthermore, there is no direct contact between the magnet and the blade, which is why the blade is protected with magnetic knife blocks.

Magnetic block for knives for up to 14 knives

How many knives can be held on a magnetic knife block? This depends on the type of block:

• 4 to 6 knives on one-sided magnetic blocks
• 8 to 10 knives on magnetic blocks on both sides
• more than 10 knives on multi-sided magnetic knife blocks

Depending on the product, you can attach at least 6 and up to 14 knives to the magnetic knife holders made of wood (beech or walnut) in our online shop.

Depending on the block, the blades can be a maximum of 25 to 29.5 cm long. Of course, you can also attach other magnetic objects to the blocks, such as kitchen scissors.

A cost-effective alternative to magnetic knife blocks for kitchens with limited space are magnetic wooden knife racks for wall mounting—a kind of hanging knife block in the form of a magnetic holder. You can also purchase these in our shop.

Which magnets are suitable for a knife block?

Magnetic knife blocks typically use strong neodymium magnets.
These high-performance magnets are characterized by their particularly high adhesive force, even in their small size. This means that even heavy kitchen knives can be reliably held to the surface of the knife block without slipping. In many cases, the magnets are invisibly embedded in the wood or combined with a stainless steel plate to optimally combine design and function.

Care of magnetic knife blocks

To ensure that your high-quality magnetic knife block made of wood remains beautiful for a particularly long time, you should consider a few things:

• Do not place the block near heat sources
• Do not attach wet or dirty knives to it
• Clean the block only with mild detergent
• Do not let the block get wet 
• Do not bring the magnetic block into contact with other magnetic products, electronic devices and magnetized cards

If you follow these care instructions, you and your knives will enjoy your magnetic knife block for a long time.
