It grows on you Aug 30, 2007
By J. Lubner Out of the box you notice the blade on this knife is a little shallow for a conventional grip on the handle. You also notice that good or bad, it is light. It's sharp but so is any other new knife. Overall, it seems OK. Six months later when it's as sharp as the first day it's the first knife you grab for. It is not the ideal knife ergonomically, but it's edge holding ability overcomes those shortcomings in my opinion. I have given two for gifts after owning mine a year.

The Best Knife I Own! Dec 12, 2009
By MRSautoX I adore this knife, it is the only knife I use anymore. It is as sharp as the day my husband gave it to me for my birthday more than 6 months ago. The grip is perfect if you have small hands like me. I love this knife so much that I have asked for 3 more from the set for Christmas. You do need to be careful about using it near hard objects I accidentally touched the edge of a bowl with it and put a very tiny knick in the blade, but it still cuts like a dream.

Very efficient, but dangerous Dec 07, 2010
By DoctorJoeE This knife embodies all the pluses and minuses of ceramic knives.
On the plus side, it's very, very sharp. (This will be on the "minus" list as well.) It cuts through virtually anything (including your fingers) effortlessly. It's great for slicing soft and/or fragile items, such as very ripe tomatoes and fresh bread, and handles the toughest meats with the greatest of ease. Ceramic is lighter than steel, so ceramic knives feel deceptively light for their size, which makes them faster and easier to use for most tasks, at least in my hands. Ceramic is also harder than steel, so in general, ceramic knives will stay sharp longer -- although that obviously depends on how often you use them, and for what, and how you treat your knives generally.
On the minus side, once again, it's very, very sharp, and you must keep that in mind every time you pick it up. Keep your ceramic knives away from cooking novices and klutzes, and for heaven's sake, don't let your kids even know where you store them. Ceramic is more brittle than steel, so ceramic knives are fragile. If you're cutting through a bone, and pivot the blade laterally, it will chip, or even snap in half. If you drop a ceramic knife on a hard tile floor, there's a good chance it will shatter -- and if your foot is in the way, you could open an artery or lose a toe. These knives, even more than most cutlery, demand respect; and even more than most cutlery, you cannot allow your mind to wander while you work, even for a second. You never want a delay in dinner preparation, but you REALLY don't want the delay to caused by a trip to the emergency room to get a finger sewn back on.
