Knives Magnets and and rv

My current rig, I just stuff them, point down, behind the stove. This knife "rack" has worked flawlessly for me for years.

Next class "B"? I'm looking at a roll bag, and placing them in a drawer. That way, if the drawer opens while on the road, not much will happen.

We have a magnetic rack. No issues with knives falling off. But DW says they are going in the drawer when we go to Louisiana. :B

For all of my friends who have them, they travel with the knives up there and they've never fallen. I don't have one because I don't have a good spot for it. But if I did, they'd travel up there without a concern.

Exactly! :)

I have a magnetic knife holder works great. Takes advantage of wall space vs. putting knives in drawer. Knives do not fall off.
I imagine all knife racks are not created equal. I don't think all suspensions and ride quality are equal either.
Magnetic knife rack works well for me.


If you don't trust magnet you may consider

Camco Knife Safe

I've got 2 of the Camco knife safes on the cabinet doors under the sink.

Our stove is located over the axles and we have a magnetic holder mounted behind it. Knives hang handle down and have never fallen off. We like ours.

We keep ours in a drawer.

This answer is too easy!!

Same :) :)
We have limited like 3 'perfect' killer knives that works for all foods etc and just stuff those bad boys in a drawer ;)

We do this. They are handle down, point up. Never fallen off yet. We drive Californias "smooth" roads. They have yet to fall off, even the scissors.

Our ceramic knives keep falling off the magnets. :B

I have an IKEA magnetic holder but haven't used it in my RV. It has very strong magnets. It's true that some stainless steel is non-magnetic, but virtually all cutlery is magnetic.
