Sharp & Attractive Way to Store Kitchen Knives!

This article was originally posted on The Wood Whisperer.
Summary
Summary: The Wood Whisperer shows how to turn a small live-edge scrap into a sleek, space-saving magnetic kitchen knife holder. The trick is slicing a thin veneer off the board’s face, installing magnets in the body, then reattaching the veneer for a seamless look. He links the specific magnets used (KJ Magnetics D84) and shares a discount code for finish.

Question: Have you made or considered a magnetic knife rack—what wood species and finish would you choose for your kitchen?

I’m not all that precious about live edge, but when I have a nice little piece sitting around it would be a shame not to use it for something cool. To help save space in my kitchen, I decided to turn a small live edge scrap into a magnetic knife holder.

The key to making this work is cutting off a thin veneer from the top face of the board. The magnets are then installed in the board and the veneer is added on top to provide a nearly seamless look.
