Handmade in Denmark – chosen by customers worldwide
For more than 10 years, we have designed and custom-made knife rails and knife blocks for customers all over the world.
Through thousands of knife holders delivered to customers in Denmark, Europe, the USA and Australia, we have built a deep understanding of both function, materials and individual needs.
All products are made individually to order in our workshop in northernmost Denmark, where we – Kari and Torben – are personally responsible for the design and the entire manufacturing process.
This means:
- No mass production
- No intermediaries
- Direct contact with those who manufacture the product
- Full responsibility for results and finish
The finish of the knife holders is achieved through a wide range of manual processes that highlight the natural character of the wood and provide a silky smooth surface with long durability.
Fully magnetic design – free placement and secure hold
Our knife holders differ significantly from traditional solutions by being fully magnetic.
They are built with continuous rows of powerful neodymium magnets along the entire length of the knife rail and the width of the knife block. This means that you can utilize every centimeter – on a 40 cm knife rail you can typically place 6–8 kitchen knives.
The magnets are invisibly encapsulated in the wood and distributed in several layers, so that each knife blade comes into contact with several magnets simultaneously. The result is a stable and secure hold, where the knives do not slip, turn or attract each other.
Gentle storage of your knives
A good knife holder is not only about storage – but also about protecting your knives.
When knives hang freely on a magnetic knife holder, you avoid the contact between knife blades that often occurs in drawers or traditional knife blocks. This reduces the risk of minor damage to the edge and helps the knife stay sharp for longer.
At the same time, the knives are always visible and easily accessible, making work in the kitchen both more efficient and manageable.
More hygienic than traditional knife holders
ThreadOptional knife holders can be difficult to clean, and moisture or food residue can accumulate in the openings over time.
With a magnetic knife holder, the knives hang freely and are ventilated, making cleaning simple and providing a better opportunity to keep both knives and holders dry and clean.
It is a solution preferred by both chefs and food enthusiasts.
Powerful magnets developed for the purpose
We only use powerful neodymium magnets, which are manufactured to our specifications and imported directly from the manufacturer.
Do they hold heavy knives?
All of our knife rails are designed to hold the vast majority of kitchen knives securely.
In the rare cases where a knife is unusually heavy or has low magnetic content, we offer our X-tra Strong series, which has approximately double the magnetic attraction compared to the standard models.
We are happy to advise you so that you get the solution that best suits your knives.
Natural materials and sophisticated finishes
We consider our knife holders as functional furniture – and this is reflected in the entire process.
Each model is made from carefully selected FSC-certified oak or walnut. The wood is processed, sanded and finished with great precision, so that the surface appears harmonious, pleasant to the touch and resistant to daily use.
Finally, an environmentally friendly furniture oil is applied, which protects the wood and highlights its natural structure. Each product is discreetly stamped with our signature – Rune-Jakobsen – as documentation of origin and responsible production.
Standard or customized – at no extra cost
In the webshop you will find a selection of proven standard designs.
But we also offer custom-made solutions:
- Special measures
- Fitting of fittings
- Special suspension solutions
Minor adjustments are carried out at no additional cost, and we are happy to advise on the optimal solution for your kitchen.
Flexible wall mounting
All knife rails are supplied with concealed fittings and necessary mounting hardware.
If you want to install without screws – for example on tiles – we can manufacture the rail without suspension, so that it can be installed with assembly adhesive such as No More Nails.
Simply write your wishes in the comments box when ordering.
100% satisfaction or your money back
We know that it takes trust to order a handmade product without having it in your hands first.
That's why we offer a full return policy – even on custom-made knife holders. If the product doesn't meet your expectations, we'll of course take it back and you'll get your money back.
The small difference that makes a big difference
The best products are often the ones you hardly notice in everyday life – because they just work.
Our knife holders are created with that in mind. They give your knives a safe and elegant place, make them easily accessible in daily work and at the same time add a warm and natural look to the kitchen.
A simple solution, executed with care.
