Magnetically mounted Knife rack..

[FOG2]

Say I want to put a knife rack on my refrigerator that is Stainless and I want the Rack to Magnetically stick to the fridge, and the knives to Magnetically stick to the Rack.
Is there such a thing ?

Searching for "magnetic knife holder for refrigerator" gives a fair number of possible solutions.
Are you thinking of installing it on the door, or a side? Stuff on the door may shift, due to the jarring of closing the door. Especially if you have kids.
Also, remember to check the refrigerator for its magnetic properties.

If all else fails, I have a surfeit of disk drive magnets (very powerful), some of which you would be welcome to for a DIY project.

It sounds like you are looking for a couple of straight bar magnet.

Be careful where you use the since the blade edge will remain exposed and the magnets quickly get strong enough to hurt you.

Would a standard magnetic hanger be magnetic at the back?

If I'm tracking, which isn't likely lol.

I use both sides of this one, so it would grab on fridge. I imagine it would stick hard enough to hold the weight. Maybe no base and this with a thin piece of ss stuck to the front? I can take the base off and test it tomorrow.

I just had a try. And no they are not.

But I think you could pretty easily super glue some magnets on the back.

Or yes there is such a thing. And just buy that.

Nice! Would really leave some edge floating out there to stag. Maybe several stacked an inch or two apart for me.

I am sure there are a bunch of different versions.

Thanks guys, order placed.

Great concept, but out of the question for us. Our kitty, Guinevere, is very curious and keeping knives exposed would be too risky.

Late to the party, but I imagine it goes without saying that you are not putting it on the door of the fridge...

Inside I assume.

That's why you buy Cold Steel.

I'm picturing a fridge at the end of a counter, so that the knives are right over the counter, on the side of the fridge. A set up like that seems like it would be super efficient.

That's how I set mine up. Looks great and holds my knives securely both within easy reach but also out of the way.
I actually have 2 mag bars. For my first one, I had to epoxy very strong magnets facing the fridge to hold it up. But the second one I got off of Amzon.

It's mounted on the side of the fridge that faces the range/oven and the counters.
