What is a good glue to use to hold these magnets in there? If they fall
out, no biggie to re-glue.

But I'm a do it once kind of guy.

I have a lot of money tied up in my kitchen knives. Contact with some
metals can also lead to an electrolytic reaction that will cause
rusting and staining of the blade.

Personally, I wouldn't ever damage the blade surface by hanging them
or dragging them across a magnet. That's just me... Would it be a
good thing to make a custom knife block?

Hey... where's Lew?

Epoxy, damnit! :^)


How about a thin coat of epoxy on face of magnet?? ww
