Would it make more sense to lower the "strip of steel" onto the blade? That way the weight of the knife would not have to be taken into consideration. Additionally, it would simplify construction of the stand, and make it so it could be placed over any device folks had lying round that could clamp a blade.
The only thing I don't like about that idea is having blades clamped edge up on a work surface increased the likelihood of injury.
