You could. But like anything wet it will eventually attract germs and mold. For this reason I love this knife block. You can take it apart and wash it. Something you can't do with a wooden block.

I wouldn't do that. I would take a moment to dry it first. I think it would take a very long time for it to dry with all the plastic "fingers" surrounding it. It would encourage mold and bacteria to grow.

I love my Bodum, but for health safety reasons I would not stick wet knives in it. You know: mold, bacteria.

I just ordered this so don't have yet but I'm going to guess here. If this is anything like my knives in my knife block - you do not want to store this wet or it will get the rust marks. Knives in knife blocks must be completely dry before storing in block - I'll use this same idea with this item

No just use dish soap dawn. You will need to use a somewhat course(relatively speaking...be careful) plastic brush to scrub and then rinse it off and allow it to dry thoroughly( maybe a day or two)

I would just put it in the wash by itself on gentle cycle with regular soap and hot water, then lay it flat to dry on a towel. Do not put in dryer.

I'll measure the slot when I get home. I do dry my knives first before putting them away.

You can but the bigger issue is how do you get it completely dry with out rust. It's generally intended for dry goods like flour etc - which can be shaken out, use a soft cloth, paper towel etc etc. What "wet" intredients are you intending to sift?

I always dry with hand towel without any problems. Make sure after that u oil it before u put it away.

Yes, you can clean it with a gentle detergent and water. Make sure to dry it well when you are done.

NO, since you can't take it apart. I am very careful and don't stick it in water. If you think about it it doesn't get too dirty. Just small pieces of whatever you are cutting. I wipe with a very hot dish cloth and that seems to work. Key thing is don't stick it in water. Hope this helps. I love this little chopper.

I wouldn't recommend doing that. Just a quick wipe down w- a soapy dishrag.& a quick towel dry works just perfect!!

It would be fine. I usually hand wash mine, just be careful as it is really sharp. I use either a sponge or a dish mop, then rinse under hot water and let it air dry. I love mine, it is so easy to use, and makes a very clean cut. Hope this helps.

No, just a run it under the tap water for a few seconds then just put a few drops on it when you lay it down and start sharpening. And if it feels dry just put a few drops again as aften as you need. Definitely does not need a long soak. It works wonders!

You need to wash knifes by hand and with a soft cloth dry them by hand. They will stay clean and shine like new. They are so sharp it's good to clean them the minute you are done using them, children could really be hurt by just leaving them around.

It might be ok to put them in a dishwasher, I don't think the colors would wear off, but to sustain the longevity of knives in general it is best to hand wash and dry immediately.

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