Gosh, I have never had one rust.Confused
I have an OXO brand manual one, and also one of the cheaper types that trim the lid off without a sharp edge.

I just rinse the blades if needed, and lay them out to dry for an hour or so, and back in the drawer they go.

Get a swing away one. The cheap ones aren't worth the metal they're made of. Oxo makes nice stuff too.

Any advice given here is general in nature and is not necessarily valid for your given area. If in doubt check with your local codes enforcement department for what is required when doing electrical, plumbing or structural work on your house. Permits may or may not be required in your area and home owners may not be able to DIY some tasks.

My advice may be worth exactly what you pay me for it. :-) For the record I did not stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night.

We have a Kuhn Ricon brand. LOVE the smooth edges after the can has been cut. Don't have to worry about little fingers (their's/my own) getting cut. AND....I love how clean it stays. It has many other opening devices: helps to lift canned sealed items/bottles.

My hub is a lefty and wasn't fond of it at first. Now, he's quite the pro and can see the benefit in this gadget.
