Will the measuring cups and spoons stick to a magnetic strip?

These stainless steel measuring cups are made from 18/8 steel and one of the natural properties of 18/8 stainless steel is that it is not magnetic. So they will not stick to a magnetic strip. However, each cup does have a hole on the handle which can be used to hang on hooks if you have them.

What is the purpose of the little tip on the end of every measuring cup?

The little tip on the end of every cups makes sure that when the cups are stacked that they don't fall inside unevenly. So the little tip rests on the cup below to keep it level and nested nicely into one another which makes the set more compact. If the little tip is not there, like on other competitor cup sets, the cups fall inside into one another and cannot be stacked nicely.
