Amazon.com Review
Storing your favorite knives on a wall-mounted magnetic bar protects them from knocking around in a cluttered drawer where they can get dull and nicked. The bar lets you see the knife you want at a glance, so you don't have to pull several handles out of a wood storage block to find the right blade. And, let's face it, knives just look cool stuck to a wall bar. Bodum has infused this 19-inch magnet with gold, which isn't magnetic itself, but which enhances the magnetic properties of the steel. The result is an extra-strong pull that keeps even your formidable chef's knife secure. Best on the whole for small or medium-sized knives, the magnet comes with a wall-mounting template and hardware, and is perfect for compact kitchens where counter and drawer space is limited. --Ann Bieri

 Contains gold for enhanced magnetic qualities? January 7, 2008

"Durable knife magnet infuses gold to give it enhanced magnetic properties"
That would be a neat trick, given that gold is not magnetic.
Good price, I think. January 7, 2008

I just purchased this--don't know exactly what I am going to do with it, but a 20-inch, super-strong magnet for 9.99 with free shipping seems like a good deal. I am thinking once I get it, I will think of a great application. I tentatively plan to put it above my desk to hold scissors, staples, clips, pictures, etc. I also have a steel entry door and am thinking of using it as a door stop to keep this door open.
 Nice Useful and Stylish Accessory January 14, 2008

If you read the reviews, you'll notice that most people (or maybe no one) paid $70 for this magnet. I wouldn't even consider it at that price. But for less than $10, it's a great deal, and solves a big problem. That is having sharp knives in a drawer ready to cut you, or getting dull rubbing each other.
The magnet is strong enough to support large knives. It looks good. And mounts relatively easily with the 2 included screws.
Free shipping from Amazon clinches the deal. If you don't have one, the next time the discount comes along, grab one. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
I'm completely satisfied with this purchase.

Two thin (1mm) magnetic bars behind a thin (less than 22 gauge) perforated stainless steel mesh wrapped around 4 plastic ribs.
Not nearly as strong as I anticipated.
Only worth $9.99 paid January 12, 2008

It's hard to imagine the regular price of this item getting any buyers. I bought it on one of the lightening deals after reading one of the reviewer's plans to use it to hold office supplies which I thought was a great idea. It is nice quality thin perforated stainless steel bar which unlike some Chinese stainless hopefully will not rust. It has to be nailed or screwed to a wall though. I was planning to use it on my lateral metal file cabinet which of course I cannot unless I use double faced foam tape which may not be strong enough to hold the weight of scissors or a stapler. It may end up on the garage wall for small metal tools or a gift in the Goodwill box.
