The magnets are evenly spaced for each knife. Wall mounted design frees up counter and drawer space and gives a creative look in your home. Designed for wall or back splash mounting. The back is routed at each end for keyhole.  Two brass metal keyholes are attached on the back of the wood for added strength. Mounting instructions, wall anchors and screws included.

WOOD MATERIAL:
Arizona grown WILLOW ACACIA desert hardwood is uniquely hand-crafted and custom designed from weathered-down trees found in the suburban metropolitan Phoenix area. By acquiring desert hardwood logs allows me to create 100% sustainable, repurposed live edge wood designs. This prevents some logs from being taken to the landfill. Both sides of live edge slab goes to a router sled table to obtain desired flat surface and thickness.
Note that each wood material has a has a unique characteristic and will vary in shape, size, texture and it's not always what's in the picture shown. During the build process, I fill most of the natural cracks with epoxy. The cracks on the wood may be visible due to its natural air drying process and kiln dry process. As the wood slab ages, noticeable cracks on the wood may appear due to its natural dry cracking process and changes in humidity and temperature. Any voids or cracks from the wood are sealed with epoxy to maintain the integrity of the wood.
NEODYMIUM MAGNET:
Neodymium magnets are the strongest permanent magnets. They provide unparalleled levels of magnetism and resistance to demagnetization. They are also described as rare-earth magnets, because neodymium is part of the rare-earth family of elements.
