CERAMIC BLADE TECHNOLOGY
The ceramic knives have a unique white blade that
is made of zirconium oxide The blade undergoes high-pressure molding before
being fired (“sintered”) – which takes several days of high temperatures (in
excess of 1000° C). The finished ceramic is then ground and polished on a
diamond wheel to form a sharp cutting edge and attached to the knife handle.
Steel versus Ceramic
Zirconium oxide is harder than ordinary steel and almost
as hard as diamond. This means the ceramic blade keeps its edge much longer
than a steel blade. Thus with proper care, ceramic knives can go many months or
years without sharpening.
BENEFITS OF CERAMIC
- Hold edge much longer than steel. Ceramic's hardness means that the blade will resist wear and remain sharper longer than steel.
- Stain and rust proof. Non-stick surface makes the blade easy to clean
- No metallic taste or smell. Given ceramic's characteristics, the knife will not interact with your food's taste.
