The cutting blades are made of 420J2 Stainless steel, which is a highly corrosion resistant steel. This material is highly resistant to food acids, detergents, etc. The can opener is guaranteed not to rust, ever

As far as I can tell there is no metal in the blades. It appears that way in the photos because of the way the light is shining on them. I took mine out and looked at them and the blades are entirely the black ceramic color. Hope this helps : )

They are made of high carbon German steel. That doesn`t necessarily mean they`re made there. But I`ve worked in the steel industry most of my life, and I can tell you that High Carbon German Stainless is great for knives. I also have a Cut-co set for special occasions, but these knives are a very close second.I bought this set mainly for space savings, but was nicely surprised by the quality.

Yes, they are Stainless Steel. However, they are a magnetic type of Stainless suitable for hardening. This makes them subject to rusting, especially in rough areas. The blade is clearly marked INOX on the back, this is an abbreviation for the French word for Stainless. We run all parts of this grinder through our dishwasher, and as expected, the blade and plate holes do show some rusting. Use a FOOD grade silicone spray on these parts immediately after drying them.

Carbon steel can rust, esp. the edge. Clean and dry after use and protect blade with Sentry Tuff cloth or any good rust protectant you like.

Yes one has chrome and the other is stainless. The chrome can hold an edge longer than the stainless but the stainless will not rust both are very good Blades

No, it's stainless steel. After pondering over my answer I decided I could be mistaken. I disassembled my razor and upon examination I discovered the middle section of razor looks to be zinc die cast. I'am a machinist and have worked with die cast. The other sections could possibly be stainless . But my guess is, if not stainless, it is some sort of non ferrous material, i.e. zinc, brass, aluminum, copper, nickel, that has a high quality chrome or nickel plating which would make it rust and corrosion resistant. Hope this was helpful.

I don't know but stainless steel is a lot harder than the metal used to form furnace ducts. I would worry it might damage the blades.

I have had mine for a while and it does not have any rust on it at all. Now, I must tell you that I do not put it in the dishwasher and wash it immediately after I use it and let it air dry. The blades are sharp, and I am very pleased with the purchase.

I can't really tell. The blades are definitely metal and the entire submersable part is metal, the motor/upper part is coated in stainless. It does look like parts that lock the upper and lower unit together are plastic. I have used it on frozen fruit with no issues and everything like hot soups etc have blended easily.

I would not be concerned about the razor rusting. I would advise getting high quality blades such as persona so the blade does not rust. The blades are available online at Amazon or at Sally's.

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.

Not recommended. The blade is stainless. Stainless steel is more fragile and brittle compared to regular medium-to-high carbon content steel.

The blade is stainless and the shaft also appears to be stainless. The wisk is stainless.

It is stainless steel. However, after owning it for nearly a year I can see little spots of rust on the blade (nothing too big)I've taken it out in the sea water for 5 regattas, and weekly practices on a freshwater lake. (I sail dinghies and keep this in my lifejacket)

The blades (both of them) are stainless steel as is the shaft connecting the blades to the underside rotor.All I can see, other than what I described above is plastic.

The outer casing and blades are all stainless. The upper part is stainless except for the grip. It is very heavy duty.
