After 2 1/2 years of every day use, I am ready to review and will definitely be repurchasing from this company. These utensils were only ever hand washed with dr. Bronners soap and water.I rarely used the knives, so they’ve remained a lighter color. They can cut through small things easily, but not through fatty meats like steak. Washing takes a bit more work after cutting through butter because it lodges between each tooth of the knife and does not simply rinse off with water pressure.The forks have held up well except a prong has fallen off two - keep in mind it was being used to hold thick steaks still while cutting. Cleaning takes a bit more effort because again, food lodges between the prongs and not easily sprayed out with water. A simple thin knife or pipe cleaner to scrape it out works well.The spoons were used the most and have started to get “fuzzy” with the high use. The dark spots were caused by me leaving them against a hot pan, so nothing wrong with the product.After 2.5 years, I am ready to bring these to a bonfire on the beach and repurchase another set.

These are a godsend for my partner who is allergic to nickel. Of course they can't be expected to last as long as metal flatware, so we have been thrilled that 1-1/2 years later we haven't broken any (although you can see surface cracks in some of the spoons). The seller does not recommend using an automatic dishwasher, but our lifestyle is busy enough that we'd rather take our chances and replace if needed. We have not had to replace these yet, and they have been used for 18 months, and run through the dishwasher every time!I still use metal, but would say that these have been used daily by one family member, and maybe the equivalent of 1/2 time for a second person. (Those of us who are non-nickel-allergic probably use the spoons most.)The knives are serrated and really do a good job of cutting for a non-metal knife.The only catch (so to speak) is that food can get caught between the tines of the fork. We brush quickly before putting them in the dishwasher. Don't let it get dried on or it takes a little work, since the bamboo surface is more textured than metal.

I bought these for my thru-hike on the Appalachian Trail and loved them! So much getter than scraping metal utensils on a metal cook pot, easy to clean and season, lightweight, overall a great piece of gear. I would highly recommend these bamboo utensils!
