Product Description

Ceramic knives offer exceptional strength, unparalleled sharpness, and ultra-light weight. The paring knife is the ideal tool for peeling, paring, and cutting fruits and vegetables. And, because ceramic doesn't transfer metal ions to foods, fruits and vegetables won't brown where they've come in contact with the knife blade. The razor sharp blade retains its original sharpness for months or years without sharpening. The light weight of ceramic creates a well-balanced knife that is an extension of your hand, gliding effortlessly through even the most difficult tasks. The resin handle provides a highly controlled grip, and the non-stick ceramic blade surface makes for easy clean-up.
White blade with black handle.
The strength and density of fine ceramic allows grinding to microscopic precision by diamond wheels. This hardness translates into a rock-like edge which retains its edge 10 times longer than conventional steel blades.
Made in Japan.
Five year limited warranty against breakage (does not cover cutting bones, prying, or flexing).

Customer Reviews

Light , easy holding and sharper than anything around!
I have a 6" and now the 3 " ceramic knifes in my set and I am amazed each time I use one of them. The knife is so light, sharp and easy to use on any type of surface which makes this the essential for all those who like to get a clean even cut every time. No matter what you are cutting they all feel like you are cutting through butter. It will surprise you each time you find a new use or type of cut you can make with this 3" marvel.

An essential in the kitchen, the hunting rig and the toolbox.

The best paring knife there is! Ceramic is way better than steel.
I have had one of these for 4 years now and we love it. Can cut through almost anything, never needs sharpening, doesnt leave that metallic taste on your food like regular knives. I recommend the whole Kyocera ceramic knife set. They are expensive but worth it in the long run. Kyocera is the best in the industry at ceramics so I wouldnt have expected any less. They also make wireless phones--that is probably where you have heard of them. I bought this knife for my mother-in-law and she loves it too! Even the warranty is great--once, we dropped it from about shoulder height onto the tile floor and it hit on the tip. Well the tip broke off. It was still usable but I remembered reading how you can send it back to Kyocera for sharpening or for chips and they will grind it back to perfection. So thats what I did. They charge you only $17 and in our case they just sent us a brand new knife! That was a nice surprise. Amazon has the cheapest prices on these. You can find them at Williams Sonoma and Sur la Table but the price is way more.

Knife, Kyocera
This knife is the best knife I have ever used. It is very sharp. The handle is designed to decrease fatique. I received one as a gift and purchased this knife for my daughter. She loves it.
