Which of the colors are LEAST likely to show cutlery marks? I have a full set in marigold and they are so marked up --

There is a cleaning rubbing compound available of most of the shopping channels that with just a tiny amount of elbow grease will remove those marks. That is the silver marks left by utensils. The scratches are there forever unfortunately.

Well, the dark ones, but surprisingly my white set has NO marks! Lemongrass, Peacock and Flamingo are holding up pretty well too!

I've been using them for a month and I don't see a single scratch mark from silverware. I use 18/10 flatware though. Perhaps the softer flatware would make marks.

No, mine are starting to rust too. I had to order a different set. The knives were the most affected, next were the forks. Probably that was the order of use. Other folks here seem to not have the problem - maybe the set I received were defective. But mine have definitely started rusting.

No problems with spots so far, but I hand wash all my knives. Then dry them by hand as well. Still very sharp. They get used regularly.

I gotta tell you... I love this set but its funny you mention it. Sometimes when they come out of the dishwasher, one piece will have a little spot of rust. But it wipes right off. Not sure why it happens. But I don't mind it, they are so shiny and nice. I don't have any issues with staining.

There were all pieces in my set that the item stated & I am very pleased with their quality. However, I already had one set, but I've found if I leave the serving spoons in some dishes such as the dressing made to go with turkey, it discolors the gold. I don't know how to correct this, so I ordered the 2nd set & more serving pieces to make sure I have new looking ones to go around.

Hi there, in answer to your question we are trialling 2 new colors (a dark grey and a teale-blue) on 2 of our best selling products - the 4 Piece Spatula Set and the 2 Pack Tongs - which will be in store in a few weeks. If the new colors sell as expected, we will roll it out to our entire range, starting with this 5 Piece Utensil Set. Best case scenario for this product in a dark grey is another 2 months from now. Sorry if it's not as quick as you expected but it's high on the list for 2015 and we're moving as fast as we can! I hope this helps. Best Regards, Matt - StarPack Co-Founder

The black is soft and can be damaged with moderate force. The yellow is quite durable, but it depends on just what you are doing with the silverware. Hope this helps some.

The glass is frosted clear which gives it a tint of blue-ish/green. Here's a tip for you, if you decide to get it, whoever installs it, make sure they have clean hands or wear rubber gloves. My installer had some kind of grease or oil on his hands and I have not be able to remove his hands marks from the outer bowl. But they are only seen when the outer bowl is wiped down during cleaning. That aside, I love the sink and it looks fantastic - price was un-beatable too!Hope this helps. Good luck.

I just look at them. There are no markings on the silverware. Maybe was on the box but did not notice.

probably not stained. But actually, It's not my set which was dark color, is on sale for $89 on amazon. I'm very pleased with it.

Robert, are you talking about the area that is silver (the sharpened area)? Because I looked at mine closely just now and what I didn't notice when I first got it was that on mine the silver part seems to have a clear coating on it. I'm not sure of what, but it seems like tiny bubbles or debris in the clear coating. The black metal part of mine has one or two tiny pits but thats about it. Maybe contact the seller and swap it out?

I'm sorry I can't respond to the question as I haven't had my knives long enough. However, I do have a suggestion for anyone who doesn't find the clear storage block attractive ... I bought the sheaved knives and, at a craft store, bought a pail (filled with beans) the color of one of the knives. It's attractive.

I have part of an older set from my Mom ... 2007? no mark on bottom, only lines from foot inward. Also have salad/soup plates with same center designs and wavy edge - no markings.

Nope! Using this set everyday and no black marks or scratches of any kind. These are amazingly durable. I have issues with my hands and have dropped these, banged other things into them... Not a chip or crack to be found! The stoneware seems to be of high quality.

They have a coloured set if you are worried about this. Each size is a different colour. I have those & I don't even need to read the spoons just grab the right colour.

Looking at mine as we speak. Many knife marks from normal cutting. I do treat with olive and wood oil. Nice board.. Doesn't take a beating though..
