Customer Reviews of Kyocera Revolution Series 3 Inch Paring Knife With Red Handle, White Blade
Customer Rating:  Summary: Excellent Knife and Price Comment: This is an excellent ceramic paring knife at a great price. Works better than steel at cutting meat, but can't replace steel, as crushing through joints, etc. would be risky. A nice addition to an existing kitchen knife collection. Customer Rating: Summary: Crazy sharp - very awesome knife for the money. Comment: This knife is insanely awesome. I am not a professional chef, I'm just a guy that watches food network and tries everything. I have a fair collection of kitchen tools (a 7" Shun/Ken Onion knife, a wustof [however its spelled]), and I do like to cook. This knife is insanely sharp. When I first got it, I was messing around with an onion to see how thin I could slice it and it was so easy. Its inert - so theres no metal taste, and cake to clean. I've treated it well, and only used it for slicing/cutting. You're not supposed to smash stuff with it, or use too much force. While I'm no expert, I've always understood that if you're using a knife that requires a crapload of force, you probably need to get it sharpened or get a new knife. I suspect the reviews regarding the chipping/breaking of these ceramic knives are probably due to heavy force use - and ceramic or not, I dont think a 3" pairing knife is the right tool for such a job. While I can't say that I use this knife 24x7, but it is definitely a great compliment to the other knives/tools/items in my kitchen - and if you've got a knife block that you've added items to, you'll find this is an excellent addition for the money. Customer Rating: Summary: Truly "The Cutting Edge" Comment: WOW! This is my first Kyocera - but it won't be the last. I just got it today and put it through it's paces.........a very soft tomato, went right through it, crisp celery, neat and clean, no strings, pared a tater in nothing flat. By comparison, I received a less expensive ceramic knife set for Christmas..........not nearly as sharp as the Kyocera. Can't wait to get a few more. Highly recommend this brand - no kitchen should be without at least one! More Reviews Forget about steel knives. For a knife that retains sharpness and is easy to use, go ceramic. Ceramic knives hold their edge at least 10 times longer than traditional knives so you'll enjoy precision sharpness every time you use them. In addition these knives won't brown foods or transfer a metallic taste so your creations will always look and taste the way it should. Since Ceramic is impervious to acids, oils and salts, they'll never rust. And because they're typically half the weight of traditional cutlery, Kyocera ceramic knives are exceptionally comfortable to use-even for lengthy repetitive cutting tasks. Use with a plastic or wood cutting board for longer life and durability. 
Choosing Appliance -> Plastic wrap An absolute must with a million and a half uses. But do not buy just any plastic wrap. Go to a restaurant supply store and buy a large roll of restaurant plastic wrap. It sticks much better than the common grocery store plastic wrap and is much cheaper per foot. Choosing Appliance -> Cutting boards There seems to be little difference between hard wood and plastic cutting boards from a safety standpoint, as long as they are properly washed and sanitized after each use. Personally, I like the feel of solid wood. One piece of advice--buy large cutting boards. Don't bother with these tiny boards that everyone seems to have in his or her kitchen. They are not user friendly. Once you get down to serious cutting or chopping, the small boards are always woefully inadequate and downright maddening!
