Kyocera Double Edged Mandolin Slicer, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It slices just about any fruit or vegetable with exceptional ease. It will also slice your fingertips with ease if you're not careful with it. The ceramic blade is insanely sharp - the reason it works so well - and holds its edge for a very long time. The only downside is the handle. Holding it with the handle while slicing doesn't work very well for me. The best technique I've found is to place the slicer flat on a cutting board with the handle hanging off the edge, holding the handle with one hand and running whatever I'm cutting over the blade (WITH the holder once your fingers start getting close) with the other.
An excellent kitchen utensil, but one that requires some extra respect and caution during use. It seems to be a bit more durable than the adjustable version, and I like being able to slice with a "back-and-forth" motion - it makes quick work of whatever I'm preparing.
One thing that's not often noted is that food sliced with a ceramic blade doesn't seem to oxidize (react with air) as quickly as food sliced with a metal knife. It's very noticeable with things like apples. Very strange, but in a good way.
We now have quite a few Kyocera Ceramic knives and utensils and we're very happy with all of them.

Kyocera Double Edged Mandolin Slicer, Available in Red or Yellow Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When I say "one thing", I do not mean to slander this device as a unitasker. It will not julienne -- but I don't julienne anyways. It won't cut spiral slices from an onion, if you're cooking your way through Michel Richard's book -- but you can get a much better device for that strange task. Instead, Kyocera made a nearly idiot-proof slicer that Does What It's Supposed To. This is about 99% glorious and 1% terrifying. Read on.
It slices paper-thin (I believe the measurement is 2mm?) planes of whatever you run across it, and it does so very, very quickly. The biggest drawback of this device is also its biggest strength -- before you know what happened, your garlic clove or pear or potato is sitting in a pile on your cutting board, neatly reduced to loose-leaf, and if you are not careful, you will have to hunt around for the bit of fingertip that got lopped off by the exceptionally sharp blade. It slices anything you put in its path, which is exactly what it's supposed to do -- so don't slice your fingers!
The designers were not joking when they emblazoned the device, the package, and all the marketing materials with warnings about how sharp the blade is You might think the hand-guard would ameliorate this hazard, but you'd be wrong, except for boundary cases with big thick vegetables. And you'll find yourself using this for so many smaller or wigglier vegetables that you will eventually dispense with that thing, so Watch Out. It's SHARP.
I find the hand-guard / smoosher to be almost useless unless you have a big, wide vegetable with a vast expanse of firm flatness to poke it into. Mostly I end up using my fingers and paying as much attention as I can to avoiding the maw of the slicer. It *WILL* cut bits of your fingers clean off, and it's so sharp that if you have calluses as thick as mine (from climbing and lifting weights), you may think you've escaped without incident. Don't be so sure. Look for the telltale flat pink bit on the end of your fingers and FISH THAT OUT OF THE SALAD, you savage! Not that I would ever find myself in such a situation, oh no. But, uh, I've read...
In any event, this device looks like junk and works like a charm. I paid $10 for mine and I use it constantly. It Just Works. You should try it.

Kyocera CSN-202-BK Adjustable Mandolin Slicer, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Kyocera adjustable mandoline slicer is an excellent product! I have used mine for almost 1 year and have no major complaints, the only one being that Kyocera could have designed the guard to snap in place covering the blade for storage. I keep mine in the plastic "dome" that it was packaged in. It is definitely VERY SHARP, so use the guard. It will effortlessly slice any vegetable: onions, cucumbers, potatoes, carrots, etc.. Easy to use, no assembly, etc. Highly recommended.

Kyocera Revolution Series 7-Inch Professional Chef's Knife Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this knife recently as a work knife at my job. I am a professional chef and I am experienced and well educated on cutlery. This is the second ceramic knife I have bought, the first was dropped by a co-worker and that knife shattered. I love working with ceramic knives because they are the sharpest knives around,period. Nothing is sharper. It glides through food. It requires a bit more care, but if you take good care if it ,it will last a lifetime. This knife is very versitile in the 7" model and very resonably priced. Perfect for meat and fish, slicing, fruit and vegatables. I can cut perfect slices, juliannes, and very fine dice. I laugh when I hear people talk about " my shun knife" or the extremely over-rated "my henckels". They are good all right but very expensive and they will NEVER be as sharp or hold it for as long as a ceramic.

Now, I will say this knife has one thing I don't care for. While the handle is extremely comfortable and feels oh-so-natural( it actually helps cutting in a mechanical sense by design),if the handle is greasy or oily (when cutting steaks from large cuts or dealing with certain fish it can get oily from handeling) it becomes slippery. Not good for a knife as razor sharp as this. Just keep it clean, protect it from abuse and you will have a knife like no other for alooooong time. In a home I suspect it will not be subject to the rigors I put it through, therefore this knife is a great value for the home chef. I would put this knife up against Shun or Henckles or Wusthof any day.

Wusthof Gourmet Nakiri Vegetable Knife with Fine Edge Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This Vegetable Knife is just what one needs for finely chopping up all types of vegetables. You must be careful though, it is VERY SHARP!! Must use the correct method of holding your hand on the vegetables BEHIND THE KNIFE so as not to get it in the way while chopping. Will make razor-thin slices of just about any vegetable. Great product. Highly recommended!!

Kyocera Revolution Series 5-Inch Micro Serrated Utility Knife Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This knife, like all of Kyocera's ceramic knives, is good looking and has a terrific sharp edge. Like the rest of their plastic handled series, the grip is contoured to be thinner at the front and back and wider in the middle. The grip feels comfortable in the hand, and provides for good positive control over the blade.
In general size, this is very similar to the Kyocera 5" utility knife in this series (which is an excellent general kitchen knife). However, the blade is not as tall as the unserrated knife, and this one has a micro-serrated edge. The size and shape make this blade better suited for slicing than chopping, but for slicing vegetables, it is very effective.
The serrations on the blade are barely visible, but they have a definite effect when cutting. Despite being tiny, the serrations let the blade 'grip' what you cut more effectively. This makes slicing at angles much easier, especially on food with a smooth skin, such as tomatoes. The knife is also decent for bread, certainly better than an unserrated knife, but not as quite as good as a knife with a deeply serrated edge.
Although the serrated edge probably means that the blade will be difficult to sharpen, the ceramic isn't expected to need sharpening for a long time. Between the ceramic composition of the blade and the plastic handle, this knife requires very little care other than basic washing.
This knife is available with either a white or black blade (I actually have the black-bladed version), both with a black handle.
While this may not be as good a universal utility knife as the unserrated version, or as good for chopping as a larger blade, this knife makes a great vegetable slicer and a terrific addition to the a set of kitchen knives.

Kyocera CSN-202-RD Adjustable Mandoline Slicer, Red Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Although I also bought a "professional mandoline", I thought this would make a handy little item. Boy - was I right! I use this mandoline more than the professional. Why? It is convenient! It's very sharp (the porcelein blade is much sharper than metal), the hand guard is comfortable and easy to use, the whole device is dishwasher safe, and it takes little counter space and little storage space. I use it to slice veggies for everything from sandwiches to tostadas to soups to breakfast burritos. Here's what it does not do: Although the blade is "adjustable", only the biggest setting works correctly. The smaller settings makes mush of your veggies. Also, it is not quite wide enough. At the thickest part of a big round onion, it would have to be turned sideways. Finally, it only has 1 blade and so it only does the one style of cut. I highly recommend it. It is so easy to use that you will use it frequently. In fact, when you think: "Should I drag out the big mandoline?" You will say "No, I'll just use my little one (the Kyocera)".

Kyocera CP-20 RD Perfect Peeler, Red Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We've had one of these peelers for over a year, and it's the best peeler we've ever owned.
EXCEPT...
The two little black plastic pins that hold the blade into the handle are the Achilles heel of this product. One is smaller than the other and it recently broke. I've heard this same problem from other owners of this product.
I'm waiting for a response from Kyocera as to whether this is covered under their 5 year warranty. But frankly, something like this shouldn't be happening, and it's a serious design flaw on an otherwise outstanding product.
===
Update to the previous review. I finally (things were kind of busy for them the Monday after Thanksgiving!) got a call back from Kyocera, they took my name and address, and immediately sent me a replacement for the broken part. The replacement arrived today, UPS 2 day delivery! I was very impressed with the speed and responsiveness of their customer service. It definitely makes a difference in whether I deal with a company in the future.
Based on this, I'd like to change my rating from 2 stars to 5 stars, but it doesn't seem to want to let me do that.

Progressive International Adjust-A-Slice Mandoline Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We have a big, heavy, clumsy, scary mandolin which I never use. I ordered this one in hopes it would be better. It is!! The fact that it's adjustable without having to have separate pieces is awesome! Just a quick slide of the switch and the size of the opening changes, and then slides closed, so the blade is not exposed when not in use. I keep it hanging on the inside of my cabinet and it's always ready, no looking for attachments. I set it right over a bowl and go. I recently used it to make pickles from a leftover seedless cucumber. I saved the pickle juice from a finished jar & added the thin cue slices. Great pickles! I love this slicer !!!

Kyocera Revolution Series 6-Inch Nakiri Vegetable Cleaver, White Blade Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I seem to need to cut myself with every new knife I get. The Kyocera 6" Nakiri was no exception. Good thing was though, it is so sharp, I barley felt a thing. This knife really does cut vegetables beautifully. It also glides right through cooked or raw meat. But, the other reviews are not kidding, the blade is delicate. I would not even cut a hard cheese with it. Not perfect for all situations but if you need to take apart 5 pounds of onions or julienne a few bunches of carrots then there is no better knife. The porous nature of the blade does make some minced herbs want to cling to it (think cilantro) and the edge is so sharp it makes me nervous to really whip the herbs off with my fingers. Just respect and baby the thing and you will get lots of great use out of it. The handle is a bit slippery when wet.
