FONE8cr13mov in general is pretty prone to rust, even though it is a "stainless steel." In general I recommend oiling all knives even if they are a stainless steel and especially 8cr13mov - just a dab of mineral oil (or even some veggy oil if you do clean and oil it frequently - people get mad at you if you say that you use vegetable oil because it can rot....). You can lightly polish the rust stains off, or chemically reduce it.
I personally did have some veryy minor rust spots with a very similar knife, the kershaw vapor 3 (*highly* recommended, BTW.) as I accidentally left it for a couple of days in a soaked pair of pant's pocket but it was no bother to clean.
If you take good care of it though, nothing should befall this knife. If you take care of it, itll take care of you!

Seems like a great price for a nice knife, just wanted to make sure I'm not getting something I'll have to send back to Kershaw at some point soon.
Thanks!
