18/10 according to the stamp on the handles. I wash them in the dishwasher 100% of the time, and so far zero signs of rust, as I commonly found in 18/0 flatware.

I don't think so...I have a set from my wedding 16 years ago and it is marked "18/10 stainless" on the handles. These new ones are just marked "stainless steel" and have a bit of a lighter weight than the older ones. Not a significant difference from the old ones though and the pattern is exactly the same.

My Mother has had these knives for a couple years, always put them through the dishwasher, and they're just as sharp (or, at least, not noticeably dull) as the day they were first purchased. I have yet to see them rust either. Hope that helps!

I have only hand washed them and they haven't rusted so far. Very happy with the bigger knives- the steak knives are kinda weird and hardly use them. The serrated part is only in the front.

I am not sure if these knives are stainless steel or not. They cannot be washed in a dishwasher, they do mark up on the metal blades. The serrated blades are terrible. These are NOT good knives.

I have owned these knives for over a year and they have no rust. I do not put them in the dishwasher, however.

Yes it is. The difference is the /10 means it has nickel in it which helps it retain it's shine for years to come. I've had mine for a year and it's by far the best flatware I've ever had! I'm very happy with it. It does have a nice heavy weight to it, beautiful design and shine, and the sizes are perfect (imo). And best of all, I have not had any rusting! I had spent months shopping for and researching flatware. I got sick of wasting money on flatware that just ended up rusting. So I definitely made a great choice with this set, no regrets at all!

I can't answer your first question, but I can answer the second. I haven't had any trouble with my blades rusting. They appear to be stainless steel.

I have had the set about 3 months. They cut great and are heavy, easy for small children to use. I run them through the dishwasher w/ no sign of rust.

I'm happy for the owners with no rust but nearly 6-8 pieces that I own have rusting at the top of the design. I took a chance and lost when ordering this set. I feel you're taking a chance as well if you order this set. Good luck!

No they do not rust. They are the best knifes I have ever used. My parents had them when I was a kid and I still have and use those ones too. I hope that helps and if you purchase you will love!

They do not look like they are all stainless. That being said, my swing sits outside in my back yard in the Florida rains. I have had it for 3 months with no rust.

If you are buying a store brand that is why anything purchased that does not say 18/8 will probably rust. I'm on well water so I have to use a dish washer cleaning product every few months and change my whole house filter monthly. I'm using the Henckels as fine silver so I use for company only and I hand wash and immediately dry. The Henckel steak knives I have had for years and I put those thru the dishwasher and they have held up beautifully they don't seem to rust or water spot like my everyday silverware which is Oneida.

I've been familiar with Chicago Cutlery name for many decades. It has been my understanding their location to be in Illinois. Your inquiry led me on a search via Google and Bing. What I've ascertained (from way too much information ( generally the case when researching ) their corporate office is still located in Rosemont Il and employees some 3000 +. As with many old companies buyouts and bankruptcy has force them to merge with others. I've discovered they are now a branch of " World Kitchen " which has manufacturing plants world wide. Many quality knives are made in France but I cant find definitive information as to the Chicago Cutlery. What I can tell you definitely is these knives are very well manufactured. I've own them for about 2 months. They get a fairly good workout in our kitchen and have not dulled so far. Whether hand wash ,or machine I find no rust which tells me the steel is good quality. Good Luck .

So far, the measuring spoons have been fine for me, but the measuring cups rust very easily. This isn't specifically related to the dishwasher; the same thing happens when they are hand washed but left to air dry. The amazon.com listing says they are "stainless steel," but when they arrived, the label said they were "India steel," whatever that is. Not stainless, anyway, or they wouldn't have rusted.
