    Here is a holder a buddy and I made and it uses rare earth magnets in the block fairly close to the spine stop. The main thing is the deep slots which allow work on the spine with less hassle.Name:  wb2.JPG

    Randy tells me that the slots were in use before the magnet plates.
    Whatever, the block in this form works well for me.
    The magnets should be set into the block close to the vertical stop for the spine, or else, a narrow blade may not be held close to the stop. Found that out on my first one.
    Another tool to get a buddy with a wood shop to make.

    These have been made for years, nothing new but having both types on one block
