How would salt promote rust without the presence of water? (genuine question)

If you lived in a humid environment, that would do it. If you ever got water on the bottom, which could very easily happen in a kitchen, that would do it as well. Also, it wouldn’t have to rust through, just deteriorate the blade such that it wouldn’t work correctly.

What magical place do you live in that doesn't have moisture in the air. Especially moisture next to a stove where water is in steam form half the time

Uhm I feel we are ignoring the elephant in the room here, guys. How is stainless steel going to rust?

Stainless isn’t rust proof. It’s just quite rust resistant.

Huh, interesting. Always assumed it's entirely rust proof. The more you know..

Nothing is rust proof. Some things are rust resistant
