What is the actual country of origin? The original Ginsu knives sold on television were all made in Fremont Ohio by Quikut.

good for you pal.i didn't know we still made stuff other than military equipment, spaceships and cars ;-) i just bought a set of Ginsu's marked- China.

What is the difference between the 8 and 12 set block of knives. Please describe what knives are included in the 12 piece set. Thank you!

The 12 Piece set of Ginsu Knives has a 3.5 Paring Knife, 5" Utility Knife, 5" Serrated Utility Knife, 7" Santoku Knife, 8" Chef Knife, Four Steak Knives, Kitchen Shears, Sharpening Rod and a Bamboo Block. The only difference between the 8 piece set and the 12 piece set is the four Steak Knives. Hope this information is helpful.

Does anyone have a particular sharpener that you use on these knives that you would recommend??

I have a "Wusthof Precision Edge 4 Stage Knife Sharpener" (from Amazon) which sharpens and hones both Standard and Asian knives. It keeps all my knives very sharp. I like it because it puts the correct edge on the knife every time.

Are they dishwasher safe?

I decided this time to hand wash dry and put away in the block. So I cannot tell if they are dishwasher safe..will not even risk it..great knives for fraction of the price of wusthof henckels etc...
