The 360KnifeBlock™ BAR is no ordinary knife strip. Every style BAR features TWO (2) rows of strong Neodymium magnets for a secure hold – both vertical or horizontal mounting is possibly thanks to the double deep magnetic lay out. This ensures ALL knives are safely secure in any position. Our BAR is made with heat treated maple milled to make Fender Guitar necks from our local Tacoma Washington wood supplier. Using this special guitar wood off-cuts we craft limited batches of wall mounted magnetic knife block BAR.
Our BAR model is made with the same top-quality, engineered design as our other 360KnifeBlock™ universal knife blocks.
4″ tall x 26″ wide x 1.5″ deep – enough space to actually get your hand between the knife handle and the wall.
EXTRA LONG – at over 2 feet of wall mounted knife storage.
Our innovative “backer” system is designed for universal application, meaning it can be effortlessly installed in any location and oriented either horizontally or vertically. We’ve integrated a spirit level directly into the backer to guarantee precise alignment, ensuring your installation is perfectly level. The system utilizes robust marine-grade stainless steel clips for securing the wood and magnet face to the backer, achieving an elegant, floating appearance.
Wood grain and color may vary – every tree is different, and some bars will be more figured than others.
Care – place clean dry knives on the 360KnifeBlock™. Keep your block clean and dry, use any kitchen towel to be sure your knives and block are dry. Learn about how to care for your 360KnifeBlock™ BAR on our FAQ page.
Deep black color starts with our quarter sawn American walnut wood with careful furniture grade staining process in our own woodshop:
- Hand rub on a furniture grade black stain let it rest for 24 hours.
- The next day we lightly sand every side and re-apply a second coat of black again let it rest overnight.
- On the third day we apply the first coats of Emmitt’s “Good Stuff” food safe butcher-block finish and let rest overnight (again).
- Fourth day, before we package up the blocks we rub each black 360KnifeBlock™ with Howards wood conditioner to keep it looking black and lush while it makes it way to you.
Regular oiling with any mineral oil will keep your black block looking fresh for a lifetime.
