Hi, Have any other forumites had problems with the new Finish PowerBall Ultimate All In One discolouring knife handles.

Always been ok before. Now I'm stuck with a bag of 70.

Thanks.

    If they're ivory, they're not dishwasher-safe. Faux ivory ones usually are.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    How about just washing the knifes by hand if that is your only issue with them, then you will not be stuck with 70 tablets.
