Wouldn't it be funny if someone really went to all this effort,
only then to discover stainless steel isn't magnetic ;-)

Oh, arse!

A quick test with a 1" dia. magnet reveals that (compared to the fridge
door) "stainless steel" saucepan is 50% magnetic, "stainless steel"
cutlery is 100% magnetic, and "stainless steel" sink is maybe 5% magnetic.

Depends on the alloy. Good quality stainless steel isn't magnetic,
except for knife blades which have to use a different alloy to
avoid rapidly going blunt. Just did a quick check around my kitchen
of all the stainless steel (hob, oven, sink, cutlery, microwave),
and except for the knife blades and microwave liner, none of it is
magnetic.
