I have had it on my patio here in SW Florida for many years, and it has not rusted yet, but my patio is under cover, so not sure about if it is in direct rainfall

No.I've washed it several times and let water sit in it overnight a few times because I'm lazy, treated it like a regular garbage can.It appears to be wire coated in plastic, but it's quality for sure, you can kick it and it won't break.

after using this for a while, a couple of nicks on the basket haven't rusted so far, but then again, I don't use it in the shower.

It would rust. It work great but unless you cover it or put it indoors it won't last long.

Yes it can rust. However, cleaning it immediately after you use it, drying it thoroughly, and then applying a thin, very thin, coat of oil with keep it rust free.

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

Yes it will rust very easily if it is kept wet. Keep it dry, and oil it lightly with mineral oil. You can also "season" it by sticking in an onion or wrapping it with a paper towel moist with 50% cider vinegar. This will produce a protective patina. These are great knives, keep a nice edge.

It should not rust, however, be careful that you wipe off the padded seat so it doesn't soak up too much water.

I have not had any problems with rust. After I use it, I rinse it under the faucet and throw it in the drain rack. I had my first one for 15 years and have had this one for 9 months. I love it!

I would assume, like any metal object, if it gets wet or put in any moist area, it will rust. My suggestion to you is: if you need something for outside, stick with plastic.

I hand wash it so I don't know for sure. It is aluminium so it won't but it might corrode.

Yes if you leave it out all of the time. If you put it away when not in use for camping or what not then it works fine and no rusting.

Hi Larry, not sure if it would rust! Nice idea though, as long as it says dry--might work!

It won't rust, but if you leave it wet in your sink, you'll get a few spots that will polish right out. I would call it stain-resistant.

No, it won't rust but I've had to replace mine because it dropped and the screw to the head broke... and they don't sell replacement parts as far as I've found. So just be careful with it because it's not indestructible. :)

As long as it stays on, yes. If it cracks off, t may not. Stainless is not suppose to rust at all. That's why its STAINLESS....

My guess that it would rust eventually especially around the welds. The metal is coated but I do not think it would hold up to the constant splashing of water in a kitchen sink.

In my my experience, my TTi has developed no rust. I have washed it frequently with water and air dried, and have frequently used it in wet weather with no rust developing

Mine has not rusted, but it stays in my linen closet (away from moisture) most of the time and I don't put wet items in it.
