What could have caused the forged stainless blades on my brand new Kershaw Shun knives to corrode???
These knives are one month old. They have never been in the dishwasher and have been exclusively hand washed (never soaked) with Dawn dishwashing detergent. I always hand dry them immediately and then leave them out on a towel overnight to ensure they are completely dry before going back in their block. I just went to put them away and noticed that two of them have discoloration and notching on the blade edge and tip. There is also discoloration on the blade where the handle meets the steel. I have racked my brain and can't think of a single thing that could have done this! Williams Sonoma will replace them for me, but I don't want it to happen again!

It sounds like Stainless Steal. This is normal, when you have any type of Stainless Steal, from jewlery to your knives. They just need polishing. Yes, even your knives. I have a silverware set that does the very same corrode, look tarnished. I just have to rub them down with a polishing rag. If you keep up on this with your knives, they should go back to their shiny look again. Sometimes letting Stainless Steal air dry can cause tarnish. Its some kind of chemical change in the Steal, water, and air.

First, stainless steel does not mean resistant to rusting and other effects.... it means it more resistant than other steels, such as carbon steels. Thus care for stainless steel just any good knife requires not only cleaning but leaving them to dry is not a good idea, drying them with a tough cloth is a better option, and occasional thin film of knife oil when they not in use, might be a good idea. I must confess I am not acquainted with chief knives, as I am more a collector of combat and pocket knives. If if you need to find some more help.... check bladeforums.com.

Using them on any type of citric acid such as lemons will cause this to happen. Use a solution of baking soda and water to clean with. Also, you can rub a little cooking oil on them when you are dong cleaning them but remember to wipe off the extra oil so just a "invisable coating" is left. Do you have blade guards? You should! They are cheap at any place that sells good knives. They serve to protect your blades while not in use.
