Reply to comment by SporkydaDork in what should I NOT put in the dishwasher? by NoPressureLife

If your knives dont coste more than 50$, id still use the dishwasher. Buy a cheap sharpener and they will still last for years.(if no wooden handles) Those realy expensive ones and especially the high carbon japanese ones should not go into dishwasher

So is it the heat that messes up the sharpness?

No. Todays dishwashers dont get as hot as back in the day. Today your lucky if the dishes are even dry.

It's the harsh detergent, and the blades hit things when the jet sprays them. Seen some knives even get dents and dings on the cutting edge from being put in the dishwasher.
