What are Ceramic Knives?

The best ceramic knives are lighter in weight than metal knives of stainless steel or steel and will not oxidize or wear away as metal knives can sometimes do. They endure acids better than metal and keep their cutting edge needing minimal sharpening. They have no problem cutting meat, fruits, vegetables and some are serrated to slice bread. The knives are not useful for cutting frozen foods or bones and the knives might chip doing so. Being brittle, they can be easily broken if treated roughly, but then, so can metal knives. The ceramic knife reviews outlined here will provide you with information to understand the knives and make an informed buying decision.

Care, Storing, and Sharpening Ceramic Knives

Care—Always cut your food on preferably a hardwood cutting board. Wood is soft and will protect the blade. Some people use plastic cutting boards and they are hard surfaced to damage the knife blade. Additionally, plastic harbors bacteria. Wood does not; its chemical properties kill bacteria, and you need to wash wood and plastic cutting boards with dish detergent under very hot water after each use, especially when cutting raw meat. Never cut on countertops, glass, or marble—this will damage the blade seriously. It’s best to keep the knives separate from other utensils. They wash up by hand with dish detergent and some brands can go into the dishwasher with no problem. Be sure to check the instructions that come with your knives.

Sharpening—Ceramic knives will keep their sharp cutting edge 10 times longer than metal knives. While they do not require consistent sharpening as metal knives need, the blade will in time lose its sharpness. Because the ceramic material is so hard, it is difficult for the purchaser to re-sharpen. The typical honing steel, whetstone or the electric knife sharpeners, including the ones attached to electric can openers are not effective. It takes a harder material—diamond grit electric sharpeners available on Amazon. However, the diamond grit can be expensive, so it might be as well to purchase another knife, since they do last a long time and wear out as all knives do. Read about electric knife sharpeners here.

Storage—Because the knives can chip and become dull, they need to be protected in your utensils drawer not touching other items. It is recommended they be put in the plastic sleeve or blade guard they came in. Some knives come in a wooden block to store each one individually according to size, and this will keep the knives sharp and safe.

Suggestions

Some ceramic knives are safe to put into the dishwasher on the top rack only lying flat and not touching anything that can dull or chip the blade. Be sure to check your instructions from your specific brand manufacturer. They are so easy to clean, so you might not want to risk using the dishwasher.

1. Kyocera Ultimate Ceramic Chef Knives 3-Piece Set 

Kyocera Advanced Ceramics model number SET3PCKNIFE Chef’s knife set is the essential knives to have in your home kitchen or professional kitchen. The set consists of a 6-inch Chef’s knife, 5-inch micro-serrated knife, and a 3-inch paring knife, all with black handles made of ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styreneplastic). The blade is zirconium oxide.

The 6-inch knife is functionally perfect for slicing vegetables, fruits, fish, and meat without bones. They fit your hand nicely and are well balanced and lightweight. The serrated knife cuts through those vegetables with skins effortlessly such as cucumbers, tomatoes, and others. We all love paring knives that do the peeling, and trimming—the small handwork such as potato eyes removal and delicate areas.

Discolorations on the blade can be accomplished with a mild baking soda and water solution but do not put on the handle. Always keep your knives in a block or a drawer tray for safe keeping. Do not use these knives on frozen foods, or bones. You will break the blade or snap it off. It could come back into your eyes or cause serious damage to you. Do not open coconuts, squash, pumpkins, or anything with a hard outer shell.

The blade is as sharp as a razor and keeps its sharpness for a long time. Ceramic blades hold their sharpness 10 times longer than carbon steel. Kyocera will sharpen your knives with you sending to the factory and paying the shipping charges.

The knife blades will never brown or discolor your foods because there is no metal. They never rust and will not modify the taste of foods. With its Zirconia Z206 advanced ceramic, you will have a strong, dense, sharp edged blade outperforming the competition.

Gift-wrapping is available for family and friends. You will receive a User’s Manual and a Lifetime Warranty to be free of defects in manufacturing. The Warranty does not cover damage from the knife used improperly. The set is made in Kyoto, Japan.

2. Kyocera Advanced Ceramic Revolution Series Knife Set, 4-Piece

Kyocera International Inc. is an excellent knife manufacturer including this superb ceramic set in red or black. The set is a best-selling ceramic knife set in kitchen and dining on Amazon.com^®. What I love best is Kyocera’s lifetime Warranty!

These knives are razor sharp and remain sharp 10 times longer than carbon or stainless-steel blades. They are made of 206 zirconia made from zirconium dioxide (ZrO₂; also known as zirconia).

The red handle has white blades and the black handle has black blades to harmonize with your décor.

You will receive a 6-inch Chef’s Santoku, 5.5-inch Santoku, 4.5-inch utility knife and a 3-inch paring knife for pulling out the eyes in potato skins. The size is the blade, not the handle included. The knives together weigh a slight 14-ounces.

The Santoku is a general-purpose kitchen knife originating in Japan. It has a flat edge and a sheep foot blade that curves in an angle approaching 60-degrees at the point. The word refers to the three cutting tasks that the knife performs well: slicing, dicing, and mincing. The Santoku’s blade and handle are designed to work in harmony by matching the blade’s width and weight to the weight of blade tang and handle, and the original Japanese Santoku is a well-balanced knife. You’ll love it.

You will never have rusty knives or metallic taste. These resist germs and acids and are safe to use. Ceramic knives are non-magnetic, and do not conduct electricity at room temperature. Just wash in sudsy dish detergent water, rinse, towel dry and put away.

Do not leave knives in the kitchen sink. Always store the knives in a block or tray to prevent accidents. This set does not come with blade sheaths. The blades will not nick if you store them safely.

Do not cut frozen foods or bones with these blades. Do not drop on the floor or a hard surface since ceramic is brittle and they might break. Ceramic knives are more appropriate for slicing boneless meat, vegetables, fruit, and bread.

Different size Kyocera knife sheaths can be purchased cheap here on Amazon.com up to 6-inches long. It’s worth it!

Sheaths offer maximum safety and protection for these knives when stored in a kitchen drawer and are ideal for the traveling chef who keeps knives in a carrying case. The sheath is the perfect way to store your knives to take traveling or when out in the woods in your camping tent.

Although a ceramic knife does not need regular sharpening in the same way as steel, its blade edge will eventually degrade or chip and lose its cutting edge and will need sharpening for the ceramic blade edge. Kyocera makes a fantastic ceramic knife sharpener that you will find useful for the task.

You will receive care and use instructions and a Lifetime Warranty. The quality-made blades are produced in Japan.
