Ceramic kitchen knives
I would like to try buying a ceramic kitchen knife like this
ebay 310099844249 just mostly out of curiosity. Has anyone tried them.

They're supposed to be very sharp and stay sharp, but they are of course relatively brittle, so unlike a conventional steel knife you can break it fairly easily. I believe the infamous Harbor Freight carries one or two models. |

I like their stuff that is welded, forged, but not sharp edged or motor powered. -- Due to extreme spam originating from Google Groups, and their inattention to spammers, I and many others block all articles originating from Google Groups.

It seems sharper than steel, and easily cuts the tough plastic bubble packages better than anything else i've tried. IIRC it is non-metallic and missed by metal detectors and I believe it is considered 'plastic' by TSA Free men own guns - www(dot)geocities(dot)com/CapitolHill/5357/ |

It does, especially since the usual reason for adding metal powder to ceramics is to (1) allow lower-temperature sintering, and thus to lower cost; or (2) to increase toughness. That's what cermet cutting inserts are all about. It wouldn't surprise me if they were using cermet technology in knives for the same reason. It *would* surprise me if they were doing it for metal detection. -- Ed Huntress |

I would like to try buying a ceramic kitchen knife like this ebay 310099844249 just mostly out of curiosity. Has anyone tried them. Thanks Without looking on fleabay I can say I have a nice set Kyocera Classic Ceramics. They works VERY well for routine kitchen work. the edge is sharper than most of my steel blades and holds it a long time. They don't stain when used to cut acidic foods, and they slice straight due to the low friction of the ceramic. It is possible to sharpen them if you dull the edge HOWEVER I would suggest sending them back to the company as the edge requires more than just a diamond stone to sharpen it properly. Drawbacks, the blades CAN be fragile, it depends on who actually made them and how they finished them. You also want a GOOD wood or plastic cutting board, just like the ones you want for steel blades. That keeps the edge from being damaged and worn. NO HAMMERING ON THE BACKSTRAP!!! The top names in ceramics are Kyocera, Tachi, Shenzhen (who also make ceramic blades for a couple of the HIGH end steel blade companies) http://www.kyoceraadvancedceramics.com/ http://www.tachiblades.com/ http://www.shenzhenknives.com/ -- Steve W.

On Mon, 17 Nov 2008 20:22:21 -0600, the infamous Ignoramus6517
scrawled the following: I would like to try buying a ceramic kitchen knife like this ebay 310099844249 just mostly out of curiosity. Has anyone tried them. Thanks I bought a 6" chef's knife about 4 years ago and used it happily for about a year, when I broke it. I was cutting down through a head of cabbage when it got through the dense core and started speeding down at the cutting board. As it hit, it shattered at the junction of the handle, breaking into two pieces. Up until then, I had adored the thing. While it was just as sharp at the end of the year as it was new, it is said that they can be honed on diamond plates. I remain a strong proponent of ceramic knives. Ig, I have two caveats for you: 1) Shock is your enemy. Don't allow it to hit the cutting board very hard or fast. 2) The cutting edge is brittle. Don't try to cut bone or attempt to cut frozen items. And resist rotating the knife in the cut, but rocking is OK. (I learned anti-rotation with a tiny 1/16" chip, but the chipped edge is just as sharp, so it didn't diminish the cutting capacity. (google "flintknapping") Other than that, they're really great knives. Go for it! The top brands cost about triple that price. -- Latin: It's not just for geniuses any more. |

I don't think the ceramic knives can get that fine an angle without the risk of chipping. I used it for about 5 weeks and finally went back to steel. I have a knife made in Brazil and labeled "Surgical Stainless" It holds an edge for many weeks and I regularly hack through chicken wings cutting up raw wings for my cat. I use it like a cleaver and it is amazing. I didn't look at the ebay one but if it is within your disposable budget then get and try it. I was also given a ceramic blade potato peeler and that rests untouched after a few weeks trial. |

Maybe they never wear out. That would leave Gillette in deep trouble. |

You ought to read the warning labels on electronic gear with zirconia ceramic in them. They basically tell you to get into a moon suit whenever touching the component. (Maybe I'm thinking of the wrong ceramic, or that hazard has been reevaluated.) Anyway, I suspect if you drop it, it will be in a million pieces. Not real good to drop knives anyway. I also suspect the blades would chip easily. So, don't put them in the dishwasher. Jon |
