This verges on actually mattering, but knives on magnetic strips should be blade down.
Pros:
when grabbing the knife you are holding it in the safest way possible automatically with the blade pointed down rather than blade up like fucking Chucky.
If you botch grabbing it, it falls away from your hand/arm rather than toward/on top of it.
the handles hook over the strip and are more secure
the handles are all on the same plane, and again if you dislodge a separate knife unexpectedly it falls away from your hand/arm

What sort of psycho puts them blades up? That’s crazy.
Magnetic strips give me the heebie jeebies. I like a nice solid block instead.
