When anyone starts to yell the word sue, not the name Sue, words are cheap unless an investigation by metallurgist engineers is done with testing and results are produced to support any accusations with evidence. So far I only see words and no evidence to support any claim. In addition, I hope you have not only the evidence but the money to defend such a claim. Remember, there are many manufacturers who have deep pockets. Then if you do file litigation and fail to receive a favorable decision, just remember those companies who have named can and might file a counter claim for debization of character.
So far I see nothing to validate any claim so far. Further, I would not rely on sales agents, tech advisors and those without the proper credentials until a proper investigation is warranted and the evidence is there to support your claim. Then as many out there have suggested, frankly any metal will deteriorate over time and then we need to know the facts for each case to see if there is any liability on part of a manufacturer.
Years ago, metals from other countries not to name them had impurities in it. We know this but such a big stink was raised and with other countries in the foray, the quality improved; otherwise, those producers got into trouble when sales lagged due to that. We know the main culprit. However as a former sailboat dealer, I saw stainless over the past 40 plus years deteriorate for one reason and another. You are correct about UK and mostly German steel is the best. I had a knife made in china which was cheap and boy you could tell it after 6 months stored inside but that Pakistani knife I got, well they know how to make knifes and swords but the funny thing they use Soligen steel from all places, Germany.
When anyone does post an allegation, I look for supporting documentation which I did not see any so far. I use to be an investigator for insurance company prior to be a full time sailboat dealer which is why I look at things differently. Getting to the heart of the matter in any case with supporting evidence and documentation is the proper way instead of going out there making claims without that.
