LOL!!! That made me laugh!!:D
 
It has no info on what it is made of nor how.
 
Well for that price they should let you know more about it.
 
I don't know anyone in my town who has ever had a tupperware show. I really don't think Tupperware knives are relevant. Don't take offense to that. I just mean, I don't see it as much competition. The QSP is another story...
 
I recently went to a Tupperware Open house (one of my past hosts/customers is a T consultant) and I happen to have one of their recent catalogs handy. Here is what it says about the Chef Series (tm) Pro:

"Precision-cast forged knives feature durable, long-lasting blades with balanced cutting action. Hand washing recommended. "

On the website, for the Chef Series (tm) Pro Starter 3 pc. Set (Paring Knife - 3 1/2", Utility Knife - 4" and Chef's Knife - 8"), $150 (on sale):

"Tupperware's Chef Series™ Pro Knives are precision-cast, forged knives of stainless steel. Featuring an innovative, contemporary design, these professional-caliber, extra-durable knives are tougher, harder and stay sharper for longer. Stainless steel blades are corrosion-resistant, and the smooth, durable handles are ergonomically designed to provide a comfortable, safe, non-slip grip."

I was speaking to my friend about them, and as we were discussing them, she admitted that ours were better :D - even to one of the people sitting there at the party! Oh, and I even booked a PC show at her T party - too funny!! (I didn't even ask - the girl sitting next to me turned to me and said she needed a new PC lady!)
