Kyocera Ceramic Knives
Ceramic knives offer practical advantages over steel, most notably their ability to hold a sharp edge for an extended period, their lightweight construction, and the fact that they are chemically inert, meaning they won't rust or alter the taste of food. As a Japanese company and a leader in advanced ceramics, Kyocera engineers its blades for precision and durability. Their product lines cater to different users: the Revolution series features the classic white ceramic blade, providing a dependable, all-purpose cutting tool perfect for everyday kitchen tasks. The Innovation series is designed for users seeking enhanced performance, utilizing a denser, black ceramic blade for even greater edge retention and often including a more ergonomic handle for added comfort and control. Whichever line you choose you can expect phenomenal performance for many years to come.

Kyocera Innovation White 7-inch Ceramic Chef's Knife, Black Handle
Kyocera designed the 7-inch Innovation White chef’s knife for rocking cuts, the motion of keeping the tip on the board and lifting the heel through each slice. That makes it the knife in this line for mincing a pile of parsley or chopping an onion fine.It weighs about half as much as a comparable metal chef’s knife, according to Kyocera, which helps over a long prep session. The handle comes from the Tokyo designer Yohei Kuwano and thins toward the blade for a pinch grip. Its zirconia and alumina blade resists corrosion and stains, and ceramic will not react with acidic food. As with any ceramic knife, use steel for bones and frozen food.When customers ask us how a ceramic chef’s knife is sharpened, we point them to diamond. Kyocera’s diamond wheel sharpener covers home maintenance. For chips or a fully dull edge, EVERSHARP, Kyocera’s authorized service provider, does the work; the form is on Kyocera’s sharpening service page.
