Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Kyocera Revolution Series 5-1/2-Inch Santoku Knife, Red Handle
Customer Review: Scary sharp knife.
Summary: 5 Stars
My first cutting task with this knife was slicing a sweet potato. I thought, "No big deal." This felt the same as one of my steel serrated knives, which is geting slightly dull. Then I sliced a carrot and I was amazed. I just slid the knife through the carrot, with very little effort. The slices were so thin they were clinging to the side of the blade. Next up was raw chicken breasts. With just a little pressure, the Kyocera ceramic knife made some really deep cuts in the chicken. This is when I realized I would always have to be alert when using this knife.
I have heard it said that the most dangerous knife is a dull knife. The logic behind this is that you need to use more force with a dull knife and there is a greater possibility of the knife slipping and going somewhere unexpected (like into your hand or your leg). If this is true, then this is a really safe knife.
This ceramic knife has good balance, is really light and has a very comfortable handle. It will never rust. If your cutting needs include twisting, prying and chopping, then a ceramic knife is a bad choice. It is very strong for slicing, but any sideways torgue applied to the blade my cause it to chip or break. You definitely don't want to drop this knife because it will most likely be damaged.
I bought the Kyocera paring knife and it is just as outstanding as this larger Santoku knife.
Description of Kyocera Revolution Series 5-1/2-Inch Santoku Knife, Red Handle
FK Revolution series is another line of exceptional ceramic knives from Kyocera Advanced Ceramics. Comfortable ergonomic handles provide precise control. Offered in 5 new colors, these sleek, ultra-sharp knives are designed to complement-not compete-with traditional cutlery. The Revolution series is designed for slicing fruits, vegetables and boneless meats. Kyocera ceramic cutlery is typically half the weight of equivalent knives. Perfectly balanced, this lightweight tool becomes a comfortable extension of the hand, reducing fatigue during repetitive cutting tasks. Ceramic does not absorb food elements, allowing just a quick rinse and wipe with a kitchen towel. Hand wash or dry with kitchen towel. This hardness translates into a rock-like edge that will not roll like conventional blades. Advanced ceramic blades stay razor-sharp 10 times longer than conventional steel blades, including high carbon steels. As a result, it will never alter the taste, smell or appearance of food.Asian Knives
