Are these scissors dishwasher safe? I am concerned about rust.

Because I use them just for herbs I rinse them under running water, then shake off excess water and either dry them in the sun or wipe off by using a folded paper towel between the blades. No rust whatsoever.

I think so, but I just wash them by hand, after using...and stand them up to dry.

I never tried that. What I did do was put them in the dishwasher before I used them. I've never had a problem with the metal slivers, maybe I was lucky. I hope that helps :)

Mine have been through the dishwasher once with no trace of rust ( I just inspected closely).

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.

yes, a tiny bit on the knives just where handle and blade come together and further down on handle. so far no other issues with rusting. avoid any dishwasher detergents that have citrus in them.

We try to purchase kitchen tools that are dishwasher safe. We have run the beaters of this mixer through our dishwasher numerous times and to-date have not experienced any rust related issues.

No they will not rust by hand washing but towel drying right after is just as important. Any mild dish soap is fine to use.

No they do not rust. They are the best knifes I have ever used. My parents had them when I was a kid and I still have and use those ones too. I hope that helps and if you purchase you will love!

That depends on how long you leave them in water. If you're like my husband and dump them in a sink full of water and don't wash them or remove them, then yes. When I got back from my 2 day trip, the knife had a couple of rust spots. My advice would be to not let them soak in water for very long. But as far as using them in a dishwasher, not had a problem so far. I hope that helps.

I have long ago thrown away the packaging so I can't tell you, but they are very high quality. I have also sent mine through the dishwasher many times with no problems, no rusting. Sorry I couldn't answer your question but I hope this helps.

It's possible the dishwasher created an environment for rust. Now I hand wash these knives.

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.

I have never had a problem with rust, ever, and I put it in the dishwasher (supposedly a real No,No for knives or scissors). If you really do have a problem, I'd do what another respondent suggests about drying it right away and spraying with oil.

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.

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

I have owned these knives for over a year and they have no rust. I do not put them in the dishwasher, however.

I've had them for 5 years with daily use and they haven't lost sharpness. I would love to order a new set, but my current one is still as good as new. Just avoid putting them in the dishwasher to prevent rust.
