Does the Silverpoint II 8-Inch Cook's Knife rust or get corroded?

I've had mine for several years and its still like new but I do give it proper care always washing it by hand and towel drying immediately after use and never in a dishwasher or left dirty or soaking in a sink. Great knife!

I've had this knife for a few years now. The husband has put it in the dishwasher multiple times. No rust or corrosion yet.

It was a gift and she's only had it for less than six months. So far, no rust or corrosion, but she washes it carefully and dries it before storing away.

i would think so..........i dont have a dishwasher and i rinse and dry my knives as soon as i use them. but i would think that any residue or moisture left on them would eventually make them rust.

I have had no problem with rusting, just be sure to care for it properly after each use.

Oh, you meant rust. No, I have been using this pot for several years and there is no rust.

Yes, even high carbon steel will rust in the right conditions. However, I have been using it in a cheese slicer, including dishwasher cleaning, and have not had any rust form.

I have not had any rust issues. Mine either run thru the dishwasher or if hand washed, dry on a magnetic strip with my knives. I do not put my Ergo Knives thru the dishwasher though!

I am of the opinion that a fresh water soak after completely dousing the knife in oil will probably be alright. You will have to take any scales off afterwards to oil and let dry out as areas like that will be most susceptible to rust.

I have had one for about 10 years, and there have been no issues with rust. By far the best pepper grinder I have ever used.

I have owned this knife about one year...no rust. I live in the Rocky Mountains so low humidity. I also take proper care of all my knives. Over to you. Threemountaindogs

I have never had any problem with rust - stainless steel should not rust under normal use.

I have never had a problem with rust, ever, and I put it in the dishwasher (supposedly a real No,No for knives or scissors). If you really do have a problem, I'd do what another respondent suggests about drying it right away and spraying with oil.

Yes they do rust! I have found that any stainless steel from china does. German knifes no. But check out the prices, and if these are for every day use, you will be happy!

We have used ours infrequently for the last couple years - no rust problems i am aware of. It's a quality piece of cast iron, good paint on the outside-

Yes Carbon steel can rust if not attended to properly. Just keep it well oiled and clean it after use around water. If it does rust some steel wool will take the rust off with some elbow grease. This is a great knife, I cant recommend it more

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 can say I have owned these knives for 10 or more years and never had rust on them. Of course if you use it for everything like I do it does get the occasional grease or grime but I simply clean my multi tool with rubbing alcohol and its like new. If it is a true Victorinox type knife is should be stainless steel. I did purchase a bogus imitation, the handle or shell broke off. Beware of what appear as good deals, I learned my lesson. A Victorinox knife is a bit expensive but it does last for many years. Hope this helps.

No, I use my can opener about once a week and have had it for awhile and have no issues with rust.
