arch - turn your imagination sideways - an elegant spindle with beads wide
enough for knife blades, held up by spindles with finials at each end

My daughter wants something different (made by dad) from the usual
slotted rectangular blocks or magnetic strips for her kitchen knives.
Something elegant, turned to hold about six knives, all the way from
butcher to chef's to paring sizes. Also a special holder for two special
carving knives.

I'm trying to conceive a glued up turning blank with slots made with
separated vertical strips or dadoed planks and sides thick enough to
allow for turning the holder into a cylindrical or oval shape, Also
trying to conceive of a turned holder incorporating magnets. I'm getting
nowhere. I'd sure appreciate any ideas or references. Or just send
encouragement!


Turn to Safety, Arch
Fortiter
