We currently have like a 20 piece cutco knife set and i saw these KYOCERA knives, and im wondering which are better, because we are thinking about getting new knives.


Thanks

Kyocera has a ceramic edge, this will stay sharp longer out of the box but you will never be able to sharpen it yourself, you'll have to mail it back to them at your cost and pay a fee to have them reestablish the edge. Cutco is a stainless steel offering

Kyocera Ceramic Knife + Peeler Giveaway : Raw Epicurean

by Ingrid

I love my Kyocera knives and kitchen tools and I like introducing people to them. Having good quality cutlery is a must and the Kyocera brand is a part of my cutlery collection. I also own their ceramic peeler, mandoline, and the everything mill . When house guest or people from raw food classes I’ve taught try my Kyocera knife, they love it. It slices effortlessly. No roughed up tomatoes with this knife. It slices a tomato like a dream, and dicing, and chopping fruits, vegetables, fresh herbs, etc., is sheer ease.

The ceramic peeler is lovely. Its blade has the same qualities and benefits as the ceramic knife. Peeling fruits and vegetables is also effortless.

What’s so else besides ease of slicing and peeling makes these ceramic kitchen tools so great? The ceramic blade is made of zironium oxide making it ultra-sharp, beating most stainless steel knives in the sharpness department and can last for years without sharpening. It’s stain-proof, rust-proof, nonstick, light weight, has no metallic taste or smell, won’t alter the appearance of food, and is super easy to clean. Both are dishwasher safe.
