Kyocera Ceramics

As a person who spends most of their time in a kitchen you learn what utensils or cookware really make life a wonderful place. For my birthday last year The Hunebee got me an awesome gift. She knows not only my love for special Vinegars, but also for the finer things of the kitchen trinket kind :) Included in my b-day goodie bag was a White Balsamic Vinegar infused with Peach and a pretty 'n' pink Kyocera Ceramic Knife and Peeler set. I vowed not to open it until I could use it in my own kitchen, since at that time we lived with relatives. As of August 2013, you better believe that pretty little pink handled ceramic blade of glory has gotten miles of use! 

Kyocera offers a wide variety of styles and packages. The model in my possession is the 5.5" Santoku and Y-Peeler Set, that retails on www.Kyoceraadvancedceramics.com  at $49.95. I can honestly say I have spent much more money on a lesser quality. This blade will never rust, so far never dull, and comes with a life-time warranty. I can also attest to the fact that I have been using this ceramic knife everyday for a constant 8 months, cooking more than the average "stay at home cook," and there has been no sign of sharpening needed. If you ever do need some maintenance, Kyocera will sharpen as many knives you can send back to factory edge, for a nominal shipping fee of $10.

I cook a wide variety of vegetable and fruit based meals for my Monday Menu's and this is the best knife I have ever used. It also works well on meat but don't saw or try to hack through tough tendon, bone etc. This is a chopping knife and as long as you use, clean, and store properly there should be an endless amount of cooking assistance to receive! I will definitely continue to purchase Kyocera Ceramic products.
