About Ceramic Cutlery
Kyocera ceramic knives hold a razor-sharp edge 10 times longer than
conventional cutlery and are typically half the weight of equivalent steel
knives. Since the ceramic blade is so light, no artificial weight is added to
the handle. This creates an extremely balanced, lightweight tool that becomes a
comfortable extension of the hand, reducing fatigue during repetitive cutting
tasks. Because they're ceramic, Kyocera knives won't brown foods, won't
transfer a metallic taste or smell and will never rust.
