 The sharpest knife in the block |

This is very sharp knife! Comfortable handle, useful shape of the blade, sharp, makes precise fine cuts. Everything one would expect from a ceramic knife. With all the pros and cons. Kyocera will resharpen this knife for a fee (around $10), but I can't comment on that because I didn't have the knife long enough.
The peeler is also very good, with ceramic peeling blade.
I would definitely recommend this set as an addition to you fine-steel cutlery block. |
Great addition

| This knife & peeler and the santoku were received as gifts. They certainly are way different than steel blades. They look like toy knives. Take them seriously as they are extremely sharp. I slipped with very little force on the knife and it cut right through my thumbnail. No pain, it stopped short of cutting flesh, barely. Get careless with this knife and you will bleed. For some tasks I prefer my Henckels Pro S. But for peeling tomatoes the ceramic is king. So little pressure is required and control is better than with the stainless knife. I have not used the peeler yet. The knife is so good it's unlikely I'll need the peeler. These knives require special care and they are a great addition to fine stainless knives but not the best if it's your only knife. Superb gift for someone who has lots of cool stuff in the kitchen. |

| This is a great combo at a good price. I recommend ceramic for all fruits and vegetables as they slow down oxidation. (apples don't turn brown) Kyocera is a great company just a little expensive but well worth the money. |
Great, sharp, durable knive and peeler

| I love these knives (this is my third). And the peeler is pretty incredible; this is the second one I've bought and couldn't be happier with the quality and sharpness. It only allows you to peel away from you, so it's a little tricky for apples but for straight veggies it's excellent. |

| This knife and the peeler as well fit nicely in your hand, the knife cuts like butter and the peeler is the best one I've ever used. Previously I had tried out a ceramic knife and found it lacking so I was very pleased that the Kyocera is the cutting edge! |
It is seriously that sharp.

I just got mine in the mail today and the first thing I did is start cutting stuff.
I used all of my old cutting knives (7 year old cutco) and compared it against this one... HOLY C>R>A>P!!!!
I effortlessly cut through a raw potato!!! I cut a piece of the potato and laid it on its side (a circular cross section). Then i proceeded to make 1-2 MM cuts across the entire cross section. I had 50 mini fries that were super thin.
Then I started to cut apples the long way (if the core is North/South I was cutting east to west). Basically these slices look exactly what you get from "apple chips" bags. I bet if I let them sit out and dry they would taste pretty good. Also another cool thing: the apples were dead white, they did not start to turn brown and oxidize...this knife is amazing. I'm buying one for my dad for his birthday. |

| Love the knife....stays sharp (forever), just not practical for twisting operation (such as deboning chicken), since the knife will break. |
Don't buy the set if you're left-handed; Only get the knife

| The knife is great, but the peeler only peels in one direction so is unsuitable for lefties who peel using an outward motion. When I looked at the peeler I thought it would be simple enough to just flip the blade around to make it work for me. Wrong! Whoever designed the peeler designed it so that the blade cannot be reversed because the holes that the blade goes into are different diameters on each side. It's a terrible design decision that'll make me think twice about buying handed devices from this manufacturer. |
