Thanks to the precision and cutting power of these scissors that usually demonstrate high craftsmanship; I have to ask myself; who rusts. Nobody wants those Scissors Spatchcock Chicken; even with his small and uncomfortable hands. I read about rust in reviews; so wash and dry thoroughly on the first day; I wasn't expecting rust, but the next day I found rust. I wish they were real stainless steel; and I'm disappointed that it isn't. and I hope they last a few years there and don't rust. The time will show.
