Are these knives dishwasher safe?

I tried it once and they came out spotty, even though I have a high efficiency dishwasher with spot rinse. I polished out the spot and now wash and dry them by hand. They are worth it though. They look better hand-washed. They are great knives, sharp, plus look great on counter top. It's not a big deal to hand wash them. I'd buy them again or give as a gift. Good luck.

I haven't put them in the dishwasher, as I know that makes the blades dull faster. But they are fully metal, so I don't see why you couldn't.

so they tell you to not put them in the dish washer because the dish wash dulls the knifes. Mine got spot rust on them after being cleaned in the dishwasher. The ones I hand washed have not rusted.

You can dishwash them but they rust quicker if youdo. We personally do not.

No they are not and no quality set I know of is. "Diamond Cut" are safe but not a quality set.

Absolutely. I put them in the dishwasher a couple of times, but they look a lot better if you wash by hand. My didn't get rust spots, just water spots, which I don't like - the main reason I wash by hand.

I wanted to add that washing these knives by hand and storing them immediately in its' block eliminates the chance of being severely cut or injured if one were to grab a handful of utensils at once from the dishwasher to put them away. They are that sharp and pointy.

I put mine in the dishwasher, but be warned, if you don't take them out right away, they can get a little rust in them. This looks more like a little discoloration, but that is what the dishwasher can do. This doesn't bother me, and the knives still work great. So I guess it really depends what you are okay with.

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 purchased our set just over a year ago. We wash them by hand and never leave them soaking in water. They have no signs of rust. Keep in mind that you'll probably never see a quality set of knives that recommend soaking or dishwasher cleaning. These are knives that you must maintain. This is a very well made set of knives. I also own a set of Wusthof knives. They are much more expensive but the qualify of the Chicago Cutlery knives is on par with my more expensive German knives.

None of the knives have rusted or chipped and I use them everyday when I repair my meals. I wash the knives in the dishwashers along with other dishes I do not do anything special when I clean them I just put them in the dishwasher.

I have put mine through the dishwasher for years & they are still going strong. Best everyday knives I ever owned.

Knives shouldn't go in the dishwasher. They are liable to rattle around which can damage them. I always hand wash my knives.

It says right at the top under the price that these knives are NOT dishwasher safe. It is always best to wash knife sets by hand and dry them as well.

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 almost always put them in the dishwasher. Especially if I use them to cut meat, garlic, or onions. Works great.

The knives are at our vacation home so they are not used daily. But I don't put my knives in the dishwasher but wash and dry them by hand, so I don't really know if they will rust.

No. In the description it says hand wash/dry only. I didn't realize this (or perhaps I read the answers here), and put mine in the dishwasher. When I used them with moisture on my hand, black residue came off on my hand. I don't know if there's a way to restore the finish now or not. If you really want to use the dishwasher to clean your knives, I would recommend getting the set with the black handles that are supposed to be dishwasher safe.

No - you cannot add these knives in dishwasher neither soak them in dishpan or water, it will dull the blade.

I have been putting them in the dishwasher, I use "Finish" for preventing spots and water marks. While the handles are plastic, and not high end, the blades are sharp and work better than more expensive knives I've had in the past.

Sorry to respond so late, but no. They are not dishwasher safe. The bamboo will not tolerate a dishwasher. Don't let this stop you though. These are lightweight and perfect for cooking. Price is great too!

Don't know about the dishwasher(don't use one), but they are great steak knives that stay sharp
