Rusts! The blade is not from stainless steel and will stain the moment you use it on anything acidic, including citrus, beets, etc. Which of course means you can’t even return the blasted thing for a refund Shockingly poor quality!!

<p>Hi, I'm sorry you are disappointed with your purchase, but the product description does clearly state that the blade is made out of carbon steel:</p> <p><em>'It is important to note that carbon steel not stainless or rust resistant. That means it should be treated with care and certainly not be cleaned in the dishwasher. Dry it immediately after use and maybe even oil the steel a bit, then you can count on many years of pleasant use . Sometimes the steel may show some discolorations. This is a feature of the type of steel and completely normal. It is absolutely not a flaw of the knife.'</em></p> <p>The carbon steel allows Robert Herder to grind the blade really thin making it an excellent slicer. It also aids in the ease of sharpening. People appreciate these assets of Robert Herder knives for over 100 years. </p>

Lovely smallish knife, well balanced, light. Very good blade. I think excellent for a smaller hand. Needs to be cleaned and oiled immediately after use, some discolouration seems unavoidable.

Very sharp, light - versatile. Thinness of blade contributing to those positives is also susceptible to breakage - strictly slicing; not a chopping blade. A carbon blade so, not a put away wet/damp knife ... and slicing of acidic foods can stain the blade quickly; many call that character.
