Are the blades metal? Can I hang them on my magnetic knife holder?

The titanium is a coating or plating. The knives are magnetic only because the steel the titanium is bonded to is magnetic. The titanium itself is NOT magnetic. That is why artificial joints (like knee or hip replacement joints) will pass through an airport metal detector without going off. When staples or other internal fastenings are used internally, they use titanium. Titanium is a poor conductor of heat and of electricity.

Yes, the titanium plated blades could be hung on a magnetic holder. I put the knives in their individual plastic protective sleeves and they each hung well. However, you should be aware that magnets attract all magnetic debris like dust sized particles which can transfer to the uncovered blade, then deposit itself in the sliced food. Also, the rainbow effect will not display well when covered. Direct contact of blade to the magnet will also mar the finished surface over time. Be careful to hang the knives "Handle up" in the sleeve less they fall out.

So these must be steel tins, right? Not aluminum since magnets do not stick to aluminum??thanks so much!

It depends on how strong your magnetic strip is. I bought my strip on eBay. It's made of oak & has very strong magnets. These knives stick fine with the blade guards on.

it's a pretty strong magnet, but not sure about hanging with the knives hanging down like that...if they fall off...oh boy. We have it mounted on the wall and they stay at that position very well...sometimes it's even hard to pull them off... but, again I would be worried if it's under the cabinet. If the knife was lite weight...maybe....

Yes, as long as you have the room for the knives under the cabinet the magnet will hold them. I love mine. The wood is great quality and the magnet is very strong. :)

No, the steel is not magnetic. you would have to find another solution to your idea.

The blade isas de of soft metals. The tips will bend if you use then the are for show only. The have two powerful magnets at the thick part to the them together.

No they are not. Wished they had been. It would help to get screws out of deep recesses. But they did the job I needed them to do, and as inexpensive as they were, expecting magnetized tips would be wishful thinking. Decent set.

I don't think it would hold knives with sheaths. The magnet is really strong, but maybe not strong enough for your requirement. Another concern is that it has a metal rail-like edge over the magnets. The first time I put a knife on it, the blade suffered from a little "notch" and required a lot of honing. This issue can be surpassed by attaching your knives from the edge to the blade. If you do it from the blade to the edge, you will get "notches" on the edge.

Yes, there are metal loops on the sheath. You can use these to hang the scabbard from a sword belt, or just hang it on the wall.

Hmmm.... maybe not, but we don't have a magnetic strip to test it.We put the knives in a drawer. Unlike unsheathed knives, there's no worry about the blades dulling when they move around in the drawer.

not sure... Google them? I really love them!!! I have mine on a vertical magnetic knife rack in my kitchen on the side of an end counter by the sink... it looks really cool!!!

Mine doesn't have any magnets. I just slide them in the slots. I have some very valuable knives and have had no scratches.

I don't think so and if they are it is the cheapest metal. And no you def can't use them as wepons. They aren't even sharp.

Sorry, no they do not appear to be magnetic, I have a couple different magnets that will not stick to them!

Stainless Steel generally does not have enough ferrous metal for magnets (even those as strong as these) to "stick". I have had little success using magnets of any kind on quality stainless steel. Unless the surface on which you would like to use is specifically made to use with magnets - I would not think these will work for you...

It is possible , if you get strong enough magnets. Your degree of success will be determined by 1. the strength of the magnets you use, and 2. The total weight of the "Knife Bar" plus items you are trying to support. If I were absolutely committed to mounting this to a refrigerator, I would consider something more foolproof; like epoxy. Falling items like sharp kitchen knives could be extremely dangerous.
