Does the stainless steel blade rust easily?

I've had mine for some time now and it's as good as new. BTW, I've found that a light touch works best with this peeler, it flies along like there's nothing there. If you try to dig deep it may bind a little due to the serrated blade, but once I got the hang of it, this immediately became my favorite peeler!

I have been using this for nearly one year, and have noticed no rust whatsoever. I mostly use the dishwasher to clean it...

A few of my knives started to rust almost immediately after I received them (that is with me oiling them regularly). Another showed up with rust already on it. The craftsmanship is nice but I question the quality of this blade no question.

I am not sure what kind of steel the blade is made of. I do not get into the different kinds of steel blades are made of. I do know it is not stainless. This knife will rust if you don't take care of it. Sorry I don't have more info on your question. You could reference Schrade's web site for that info.

No, the protective coating on the blade is there to retard rusting of the carbon steel blade. Just keep a thin film of oil on the blade and you'll have no worries.

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.

I use it for cutting sculpting clay and haven't washed it, if it is stainless steel it shouldn't rust.

Well wipe it off at after usage and put some oil on the blade and you won't have rust problems. I keep mine stored in its sheath and I have never had rust

The backbone of the blade is stainless and the cutting edge of the blade is D2. You can see the fusion of the metal in the blade at the wavy gold line. It will rust, including the stainless portion, if not kept dry and oiled, but the edge is more prone to doing so. The D2 holds a better edge than stainless and depending upon what sort of work you intend it for can hold up better.

Well, any knife will have issues with moisture. Of course the only part you would need to worry about rusting, would be the blade. If you strip the coating off the knife as many people have done, then you have more areas to worry about. Keep the knife oiled and dry when possible and it will serve you great.

I have not seen rust or sharp edges, although I have used it only a few times after receiving it.

I've had this knife for a few years now. The husband has put it in the dishwasher multiple times. No rust or corrosion yet.

No, I use my can opener about once a week and have had it for awhile and have no issues with rust.

None of it is stainless, It's all made of Titanium, which is lighter in weight and will not rust. Stainless steel will rust but more slowly than regular steel. This knife is better than stainless steel.

I have two of these. One is approximately 12 years and the other, maybe a year or so. Blades have never rusted. You need to maintain them correctly, which is simple - start here... http://www.osterstyle.com/service-%26-support/product-support/product-faqs/blades/blades.html (FYI, the blade on the Finisher is attached with screws. Get an appropriate screwdriver and remove to put new blade in place.)

The carbon blade is a bit thicker but will tend to rust if not cared for properly. Stainless steel has a bit thinner blade. Stainless steel will take much more abuse without rusting, but... it is not impervious to rust if terribly mishandled. Carbon steel has been known to take a keener edge than stainless also. Hope this helps.

I have had these knives for two years and have had no problems with them rusting or corroding when washed in the dishwasher. I also got a set for my daughter and she has not had a problem either.

I checked the corer and could not find stainless steel written on the blade anywhere. It has not rusted and remains sharp. I did not save the packaging to see if it said it there.l
