Ceramic Knife Set

Listen..I'd happily give 5 stars if their sharpness lasted more than a year.

Great Japanese Nikiri knife

The 6" Shenzhen Chef's Knife is a great product, and the price s a great deal easier to pay than the price of a comparable Kyocera knife. A couple of years ago I decided to buy a Kyocera knife for my wife, who makes hundreds of egg rolls many times a year. Her steel knife was no sharper than a butter knife after innumerable rounds of vegetable prep for her egg rolls, and I thought I could make her chore easier. It turned out that the knife was just what she needed, and that it made the job a far easier. Well, that was 2 years ago, and despite the fact that ceramic knives hold their edge better, even they get dull. When looking to get her another new ceramic knife, I stumbled on the Shenzhen Chef's Knife. Ceramic is ceramic, so I figured out that this would work as well as Kyocera. It turns out that it is comparable in every way, but the price. Both knives are ergonomic, and both knives are sharp enough to shave (when new). I have since discovered that there are sharpeners made specifically for ceramic knives, which may lengthen the time between further purchases of these excellent knives. But, if you don't have one, and you need a truly great knife for slicing vegetables, fruits, and even boneless meat, this is the way to go. If anybody asks me for my suggestion, I will enthusiastically recommend a Shenzhen ceramic knife. Get one and see if you don't find how nice they are. UPDATE: It is now Feb 19, 2021, and we still have our knife. It's not quite as sharp, but is still in one piece, and functioning. Reasonable caution will prevent chipping or breakage of the tang. Sudden lateral forces, or trying to use it like a cleaver, will likely break the blade. The ceramic material is far stronger than steel, but because it is far higher on the Rockwell hardness scale, it is much more brittle. After 10 years, I'm still happy with my purchase.

very sharp great design and essential for my cooking.they last a life time if treaten correcty. very happy with product

Best knifes . Really sharp and makes the cutting easier . I'll never go back to other knife again.

Great Knife, Super Sharp.Wanted it to slice up lettuce without it turning brown, Would be better with a sheath to protect the blade, I put it in the bottom half of the box it came in, and luckily it still fits in my cutlery draw, I would HIGHLY recommend.
