Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Kyocera Advanced Ceramics Santoku Knife - 5.5 Inch
Customer Review: New perspective on blades
Summary: 5 Stars
I've tried traditionally made, good steel blades by Wusthoff and Henckel. I enjoy using those blades, and hate going back to cheap blades. As big a difference is between cheap metal blades to good metal blades, the difference between steel and ceramic is many times greater.
You'll spend the first week just wanting to find items to cut. It cuts effortlessly through everything. I found it best on things that are soft (or mushy) but where you still want precision. You can get detailed control with any type of uncooked meat (chicken breast). Dissecting tomatoes at any stage of ripeness is easy.
A couple notes of caution:
1. Watch your hands. I cut my finger with one of these blades. It was so sharp I didn't feel it at first.
2. Don't let beginners use. For the reason above primarily, but also because they'll try it in unattended ways that damage the blade.
3. Watch for chipping. The blade can be sharpened, but you want to be somewhat cautious. The tradeoff with an extremely hard blade is it becomes a little less malleable/more brittle.
