To ensure safe usage of a magnetic knife block, place the knives onto the block surface with the handle facing upwards and the blade facing downwards, towards the worktop. Press the blade gently until you feel a click and the magnet is strongly attached. To remove the knives, gently twist and pull, making sure that the sharp edge comes out first.
To wash, simply wipe clean with warm water and mild soap – never fully submerge in water. After washing and removing excess moisture with a clean cloth, allow it to air dry completely. Keep the magnetic knife block in a safe, stable location, preferably away from the sink and the stove.
Don’t overload the block with knives. Leave some space between the blades. Practice caution when handling the block, permanent magnets embedded in your magnetic block may lose their magnetism if the block is dropped or hit.
Avoid constant exposure to very high heat, as this can permanently alter the properties of the magnets.
