No knife should ever go in the dishwasher. Back in my professional cooking (read: linecook) days I would smack upside the head any junior who brought the knives to the dish washer (not the machine, but the long-haired freaky dude that manned the machine).
Dishwashers dull knives. Upon finishing cutting stuff, whether they be tomatoes or hobos, run the knife under hot water and then wipe with a moist cloth. That's all they need.
