Being magnetic and everything, isn’t that because you’re supposed to hand them from a magnetic wall-mounted rack, and not in your cutlery drawer?
I suppose tossing them into the sink might still pose a problem though…
I wasn’t aware potatoes stuck to magnets. ;-).
@Oz, yeah they could go on a magnetic rack, but I’d have thought most people would save rack space for bigger things like knives, not space-inefficient potato peelers!
Knives are potato peelers. Knives are universal peelers, really.
If you’ve got a magnetic rack there is no need for the items to have magnets inside (like this peeler. They just need to be magnetic in the sense that they stick to magnets.
*has two magnetic racks at home, enjoys them immensely*
