And never, never put your knives in the dishwasher.

I'm a cook and I've heard this about a thousand times. My seven year old henkel chefs knife has probably seen more use in a month than a home cooks knife will see in its lifetime. Its probably been through the dishwasher no less than 500 times with no ill effect that I'm aware of. Its possible that it causes it to need to be sharpened slightly more often, but I doubt its by much.
