are these knives made Germany, or China

Description says "Knives Made in India"

Why do these knives start to rust after normal usage?

I read the reviews about that. When I purchased the knives I ran a couple through the dishwasher and did notice tiny rust spots. I hand washed them and dried them immediately. This seems to be the ticket. When they are used they are hand washed only and immediately dried. I have had no issues with rust since.

Are the blades fully forged? I see that fully forged bolster is mentioned, but i'm not sure if that means that the blade is fully forged.

Description states STAMPED blades. Forged bolster.

do ay of the sets have a black base

The ones with a black base are probably a different style of knife.
