This is them, but mine are red

Brian bought us a couple new frying pans the other day to try out, as our current frying pans are so far from being nonstick. It's pretty amazing how well the new ones work, and how nonsticky Sydney's eggs were this morning. My plan is to buy a few more to replace the pans that aren't cutting it anymore. Another stroke of luck is that nonstick frying pans are not that expensive.
So here was my question for Brian: Can I still put these new pans in the dishwasher? Don't they need hand washing to be sure they stay nonsticky? Apparently, no. The reason why our pans got nonsticky, according to him, is because I (but him, too) used metal spatulas and forks and whatnot on them, and those utensils slice and scratch through the kevlar, and that renders them no longer nonsticky. "Kevlar is very, very strong; the dishwasher doesn't do anything to it," he lectured, "it was that metal spatula you love."
Alright fine, no more metal spatulas and forks and whatnot on the new nonstick pans. ... And also I need one or two more sets of them.
