Knives have been a part of my life since my earliest memories … I love knives, and I’ve been cast as “The Knife Guy” in our business. My collection includes knives from the US, Germany, France, Japan and Spain. I love to use, and care for, all my knives. But it does take time and effort.
I recently had an epiphany: instead of getting hung up on incremental and microscopic improvements to the ancient process of transforming iron into steel, why not consider an entirely different material: something very hard, that can be shaped and customized to traditional and modern specifications from the outset and require minor maintenance, if at all. Let’s consider … ceramics! Ceramic knives are a revelation … the source of my epiphany!
Ceramics are one of the strongest natural materials: second only to diamonds. Ceramics are used on the exterior of space vehicles, to protect against the extreme heat of atmospheric reentry, and in artificial joints for humans, where wear-n-tear must be minimized. And now this material is used to make knives that cut like a dream and hold a wonderful edge for a really loooong time!

Love this knife!Product Rating60%I may not love knives quite so much as Kennedy regularly professes, but I did inherit respect for a quality knife from both my mother and my father. Furthermore, I do love a good, ripe tomato and nothing cuts 'em better than this one. Does a fine job generally as a paring knife, too. I use it for just about everything - except cheese. (Okay, go check out the Cheese Knife, too.)

You'll love this knife!Product Rating100%This is my go-to knife for almost everything -- veggies, herbs, soft meats and cheese. The finely-serrated, ceramic blade cuts through tomatoes like butter. Another plus, the knife keeps it's edge without sharpening.
