Safety and reliability have long been the focus of knife holder designers, but there’re also somebody that go rightly the other way. Thus this dangerous holder was created. Without any wood or metal built around, the holder simply leaves sharp knives held by an embedded-in magnet.

However, you needn’t worry about the safety problem, because the magnet is really strong, maybe too strong for you to take the knife away from it.

Knife is never safe. Even in kitchens where each knife has their own positions, it is still quite possible that they will go out of the slots and fall onto the floor or your feet. Luckily the Knife Locker by Min Seong Kim will cleverly solve that problem.

It contains no sharp edges, so you needn’t worry that you’ll accidentally cut your mouth open.
