Sharp and sleek design
1. NEVER PUT IN DISHWASHER: The strong DW detergent will literally “eat” the thin sharp edge of the knife, making it jagged. In the DW water sits on the knife blade, discoloring it and eventually rusting it. The dryer in your DW just can’t dry it quickly enough. 2. Wash and dry you knife well and immediately after each use: Especially dry the blade near the handle. Do not allow acidic foods, juices to sit on the blades— again, it will discolor and rust the soft carbon steel component in the blade. 3. Please don’t ruin the sharp edge on the blade by using the blade itself to scrape food off your cutting board— use the BACK SIDE of the knife to scrape food from your cutting board. 4. Use the right kind of cutting board— preferably plastic— not your granite countertop, or your ceramic dishes, or glass— it will ruin your knife edge, making it harder and harder to restore the sharp edge you had on your knife after first buying it.
If these simple rules are followed, your knives will perform flawlessly for you— take an online tutorial— and last a long time. A knife that has been inadvertently put in the dishwasher and now has a jagged, pitted edge can be taken to a good, professional knife sharpener who can remove the jagged edge—albeit with the loss of some of the blade— and restore the sharp edge. In this Calphon Knife Set, they have, to a degree, idiot proofed the sharpening care of the knife, a great advantage for fast- paced living and cooking!

Regarding the new knife set.
This is what the knife company says:
“Dear Frank,
Thank you for contacting Calphalon. We truly appreciate your interest in our products.
Please be advised that the Calphalon Classic Self-Sharpening 15-Piece Cutlery Set does not have a bread knife included. The empty slot is intended to be a free slot in order for you to put any knife of your choice from the same collection – if and whenever available. Therefore your cutlery set was complete and not missing any knife.
