Review on πŸ”ͺ Premium Walnut Magnetic Knife Holder Strip - 12 inches, USA Made by Rick Booth

Revainrating 4 out of 5

excellent except for the lag screw that was included, super suction

looks great and holds all the knives (including 2 cleavers), scissors, church keys I've put on it. What was also handy was that it included fasteners for drilling holes in the drywall and a bolt. I had a HUGE problem with the included drywall anchor screws: they suck. like, a lot, at least for my walls. They are very large in diameter and did not fit smoothly into my wall. Instead, it kind of ripped/ripped my wall, causing portions of the wall to stick out and the anchor bolt not being able to sit flush. Because this anchor bolt is huge, it stuck out a lot. So we removed it and used our own smaller anchor bolt. Fits the same bolt that comes with the kit, but the anchor bolt portion is smaller in diameter and the threads don't protrude as much. Now the knife block still sticks out a bit because we didn't try to remove the protruding parts of the wall, but it's not very noticeable since we tightened the mounting screws enough to crush it hard and our lag screw small enough was not to do it also causes problems.. The other side of the knife block is screwed into the stud so we didn't need an anchor.

Pros
