Will this can opener ever rust?

Well it's made of stainless steel so it shouldn't.but I would wipe it dry after each use and it appears to be very sturdily made and should last for years with minimal care. My wife liked it so much she had me order a second one Definetily head and shoulders above the ones we used years ago!

No. It's stainless steel, so it shouldn't rust out, either, like a galvanized garbage can might. However, neither does it seal tightly; fruit flies have become such a problem that I'm considering returning it.

I love this can opener. it is light weight but heavy gauge. As far as being rust proof I really don't know. But I see no reason it would rust.

Yes, mine began to rust almost immediately at the point where the chrome enters the caddy. I had four. Eventually they all broke at the hinge points where the caddy connects with the side grippers.

Mine has not rusted in any way and I have used it almost daily for several months. I can't guarantee that it won't rust but mine has not.

Absolutely none and my service for 16 is in daily use. I'm sure I have over exposed it to water on occassion -- but no rust. Love it.

The edge of the blade is D2, a wonderful tool steel, I believe and yes the edge will rust if not cared for and protected with a high coating of oil.I love this knife and the edge that D2 will hold.

I use my canner at least 1 - 2 times a week - I will admit there are rust spots where the handles attach to the basket and at the weld joints. Its not a fast rusting that weakens or makes the basket brittle, but its visible enough to know it is there. I have been using my basket for well over a year and the rust has not progressed. I do add a nice gulp of vinegar to my WB water while processing because I have extremely hard water, so not sure if that's what has been slowing the rust aging down or not.

I wouldn't put this in the dishwasher. I just give it a swish in soapy water, rinse and let it dry on one of those spongy drying pads before I put it away. Pretty easy to maintain and it works great. I've done the same with previous can openers that eventually rusted and just looked nasty. I looked for stainless to avoid that and this one is the best-NO problems, stayed sharp.

I've had mine about a year and used it many times in my apartment. So far no rust. This type of tool is required for low quality toilets that continually clog (my situation). It does a fantastic job.

I have been using mine for 2 years at pool side for wet towels, and inside for delicate clothes and have not had a problem with rust.

I have had mine for more than a year, use it at least once daily, and have never had any problems with rust.

I have had this caddy over 6 months now and no rust at all. I have had others that are chrome plated that have rusted in a month, this is more expensive but worth every penny.

No. I don't believe there is such a thing as a SS can opener. I have used mine for 14 years and it still works great. It started rusting years ago where the handles rub in close contact when closing on the can. This is unavoidable-otherwise you would have a loose joint. A little mineral oil would help, but I haven't bothered.

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
