I say basically new because we’ve had them for maybe a month. Had to run the dishwasher again to get it unstuck. It’s a crappy apartment provided dishwasher that doesn’t do its job well (notice the food stains that won’t come off). There’s still melted plastic on the heating element and the plastic fumes are strong.

Edit: I was never taught that you’re not supposed to put knives in the dishwasher. Going forward I will wash them by hand. Thank you all for letting me know.
