Kyocera Commemorative 2-Piece Ceramic Knife Set, Botanical Green

Kyocera's 40th-anniversary commemorative ceramic knife set — a 5-1/2″ Santoku and 4-1/2″ Utility — in botanical green handles, packaged in a sustainable kraft gift box. The hand-sharpened zirconia ceramic blade holds its edge significantly longer than steel, weighs roughly half as much in the hand, and is chemically non-reactive — meaning it won't pick up tomato acid, garlic oil, or beet juice the way a steel blade does.

From Kyocera, the Japanese ceramics company that's been making advanced-ceramic kitchen blades since 1984. Built for slicing, dicing, and detail work on fruits, vegetables, boneless meats, and fish.

Features

• 5-1/2″ Santoku — slicing, dicing, mincing
• 4-1/2″ Utility — trimming, peeling, intricate cuts
• Hand-sharpened zirconia ceramic blade
• Non-porous, non-reactive — won't absorb odors or stains
• Lightweight (~half the weight of steel)
• Botanical green handles, kraft gift box

Material

Zirconia ceramic blade with polypropylene handle.

Care

Hand wash and dry. Do not use on frozen foods, bones, or hard cheeses (ceramic can chip). Sharpen with Kyocera's Advanced Ceramic Sharpener or send back to Kyocera for resharpening.
