Sometime ago I bought from Aldi a craft knife set with numerous
blade
assortment and shaft handles.
Anyway I wanted to use for the first time and opened it up and
proceeded to
select a blade,piced up the blade and the magnetic strip and several
blades
came with it.

Now then this magnetic strip is bendable like a piece of soft toffee
how can
this strip be bendable and at the sametime magnetic?



Look at the seal of your 'fridge door - the hollow rubber moulding has
a strip of ferrite loaded rubber pushed in that attracts the body of
the appliance - same stuff as your craft knife I would assume. If you
scrap a 'fridge always rescue the magnetic strips. A/ they stop
children getting stuck inside (yes it's happened) and B/ they are very
useful for holding notes, wiring diagrams etc
