Title: Best knife but RUSTS
Product review: I would have given this 10 stars if it wasn't for one thing...it RUSTS. This knife is made in Japan, cuts paper thin vegetables and the short length is just perfect. After using it for the first time, I noticed the blade started rusting. I called the customer service to see what they have to say about this before I returned it. Apparently, this knife consists of three layers, the outer layer being stainless steel, middle layer being another type of steel, and the innermost layer being "carbon steel" which is the blade itself. The innermost layer is the only layer which rusted. According to the customer service, if the knife is not washed and dried immediately after every use, it will rust.If you have the patience to immediately wash and dry the knife after every use, rusting should not occur (so it is claimed). But I have the habit of washing my knife and let it hang dry in the knife storage. It is going back.
