Kasumi Ceramic knives are made out of Zirconium Oxide, hardened at approximately 1500 degrees Celsius in a special kiln. The result is a material which is second only to diamond in hardness.
The major benefit of using Zirconium Oxide (ceramic) is that it does not wear as quickly as stainless steel. Therefore, it stays sharper longer. It may stay sharp for a year or longer depending on frequency of use. There are also several other benefits to using ceramic. Ceramic will not tarnish, rust or stain, since ceramic is chemically inert. Ceramic knives will not give a metallic taste to your food. They are easy to clean merely by rinsing with soap and water. As with all our knives, we strongly advise against dishwasher use. Ceramic knives may chip or even break.
The handle on the Kasumi ceramic knives is ergonomically designed to comfortably hold and work with for prolonged periods. The handle of each size knife is weighted so that each is perfectly balanced with its respective blade. The handles are made of polypropylene and require no special maintenance or care.
