Anolon Knives Set Questions & Answers
10 questions from our users
I have a knife block which is 10 years old. The large knife handle has become loose . Can it be fixed?
Depends on what type of handle you have.
Our handles are the weird rubbery plastic things that break down and feel sticky and oily. They don't come loose.
Our knives are about 25 years old.
Yes we have the same, the rubber handle has come loose on the stainless steel knife base

Why are you still selling the same type of handle on the knives after all these BAD reviews and you haven't had the decency to answer anybody????
Its 2021 and i was gifted a set several years ago and yes, mine go oily too. I dont even own a dishwasher. So you cant blame it on that, as you have done with others.
Can someone please explain why they go oily. And why are you still selling that type of material on the handle if you have had hundres of complaints about it...?
I’m not sure if they have changed the handle material but I have owned a set for 9 years now and regularly put them in the dishwasher and they haven’t got oily? Or deteriorated in any way? I can’t und...
Read moreerstand what all the bad press is about? Mine are still like new and I occasionally touch them up on the stone. I’m more than happy with the quality for what I paid. If you want to spend $700 dollars on a top German set go for it.Hi Sharon,
Thank you for your feedback, we are sorry to hear that you are not satisfied with the performance of this product. ...
Read more We recommend using a grease-cutting detergent and very hot water to thoroughly clean the handles of your knives to remove any build up of grime, likely to be causing this issue. Alternatively, you can make a thick paste with baking soda and apply to the handle, let dry and then wash with detergent and hot water. If you require further assistance you can contact our Customer Care team here https://www.anolon.com.au/customer-service or you can phone 1800 351 565. Kind Regards, The Anolon Team
THANKYOU so much for answering me. I will defiantly give it a try today. Regards. Sharon.
When we go away on holidays and return home our knives in the wooden block are oily ? I don’t understand why. Always washed by hand.

Another oily, deteriorating knife handle owner here...
My handles have perished the rubber sticky as life time warranty wish to be replaced
I have the knife block 6 knives with scissors and they have become very blunt. I have used the analon knife sharpener but it does not work. What do you recommend. I’m very disappointed. Also some of the handles are becoming sticky and I was them with soapy water. I really do look after my knives. Help.
Re sharpening I’ve answered this in your other post. The sharpener is excellent and I use it on all of our knives.
As for sticky handle, the only thing I know that can cause this is putting them in dishwasher. Don’t know how you fix it.
I never ever put any knives or pots in my dishwasher. Always handwash them . Have you got any other suggestions that may help me.
Going back to sharpening take a photo of the sharpener you use so I can compare
I have the complete set of knives 6 and scissors in a block. Some of the knives are very blunt. I have purchased the Anolon knife sharpener but it doesn’t work. How do I make my knives sharp again.
The Analon sharpener is excellent but it’s possible to use it wrong. I use it on all our knives with excellent results.
Only ever sharpen in ONE direction ie don’t shove it back and forth through the...
Read more stones. Pull it through only. This is a general fact about sharpening, only one direction, ever. If you do it in both directions, you blunt your knife.I have done exactly that no luck
Same problem that Libby has.
One direction filled with water and the knives are still blunt
How do you look after the handle?
Ours are getting a bit sticky.
Just wash ours as normal. Pretty sure the dishwasher is out of the question but I've not had sticky handles at all.
Ours handles are doing the same thing. Getting sticky and deteriorating. NEVER been in the dishwasher. Always washed by hand in hot soapy water. Our knives are at least 4 years old. I am going to contact Anolon directly regarding this.
I’m. Experiencing the same with my handles they are getting sticky and I’m very careful how I wash them.
Has anyone had a problem with the handle falling apart?
No but I was warned that they are not dishwasher safe and the likely effect would be the handle falling apart.
Why do the handles of my Alolon knives go oily when not in use? They have never been in a dishwasher.
