Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
These Kyocera ceramic knives are a unique alternative to metal-based versions with a resin handle for a highly controlled grip. Unlike a forged metal blade, which is soft and susceptible to chemical corrosion, the Kyocera zirconium oxide blade resists this wear and holds its edge for months to years without sharpening. Stain and rust-resistant, the blade is impervious to the food acids, wich discolor steel products. A non-stick ceramic surface makes for easy cleanup and a lightweight and perfect balance make it a pleasure to use. What more could you ask for, especially since Kyocera knives come with a five year limited warranty against breakage (does not cover cutting bones, prying or flexing).

5 out of 5 stars Use of a knife   August 16, 2010

I just had to respond to Doctor Generous's review. Who on earth would use any knife, other than a table knife, to pry anything?? Common sense should tell you not to do this.

A ceramic knife is not the best thing to cut tomatoes either, get a good serrated knife for that.

Ceramic knives are far sharper and much better for many jobs than steel knives and you can purchase a specialized sharpener to sharpen a ceramic knife at home. They sell for around $63.00.

Obviously you are not going to use a ceramic knife to cut frozen foods, open cans, cut through bones etc., etc., but then you really do not want to use any knife, if you value it, to do that. And a cleaver does a much better job of cutting through bones.

A little common sense needs to be used!

Excellent knife, strong and lightweight. I bought this for my wife she loves it and uses it every day. I couldn't be happier about the results I know it's a little pricey but it's worth it if you or a family member loves to cook.

Due to the expense, I try to buy a ceramic knife at least once a year. I just added the FK-180 Black to my stable.
I have no cons at all about Keyocera knives. A little dose of common sense, and you will have a companion in your kitchen for a lifetime.
If I couldn't replace it, I would not sell it for 5 times the price.

This knife makes every cutting board experience a breeze. I haven't been cooking regularly for very long, but was always unhappy with ordinary knives for larger quantities of ingredients. The Kyocera allows you to dice up an onion so quick you'll feel like Emeril.
