Bravo to all these amazing creative minds. I hate wasting stuff that still has life in it. By the way, though I have read that some pallets are treated with a fumigant which is toxic. Generally, make sure pallets are stamped with “HT”, which means they haven’t been exposed to chemicals (at least not in the treating process.) Avoid unmarked pallets or those with “MB” for methyl bromide. Well, if anyone wants some really nice, bargain 2nd hand windows we just pulled out of our 12 y-o house to make way for a sliding door, and you live around Melbourne Australia, please check them out here: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/112070272414?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1586.l2649

We are doing a new kitchen with antique white shaker cupboards & drawers and I'm thinking a painted, pressed metal splashback behind a free standing 90cm heritage style electric cooker and the subway tiles elsewhere. We are doing an oiled natural shaped huon pine slab for the main benchtop.

Levers are much easier to use than knobs particularly with you hands full so I prefer them on external doors. I thing they are better with large heavy doors that need a large latch to secure them as a knob would take more turning. Also think about the other hardware on the bifold. Are there long handles to pull those doors back and how would a knob match

Your kitchen, do what you love. The style police won't be raiding and deducting points. But before you do make a decision make sure you check out the beautiful range of knobs and handles at Hepburn Hardware. https://hepburnhardware.com/ They are pricier than Bunnings, but you get what you pay for when it comes to cabinetwork hardware.
