Jaccard 4 in. Advance Ceramic Utility Knife

Nothing gives me the thin tomato slices like a quality ceramic knife. And that sharp edge lasts for years. It works on the buffalo mozzarella but not as easily once you get to the last portion (you have to use more of press down motion rather than slicing) although it helps to dip the blade in warm water. This knife has a non-slip handle with an additional finger notch. What really stands out is the included sheath. These knives can chip and are extremely sharp. Too sharp to let bang around in a drawer or to carelessly reach for. The blue sheath stands out and protects both you and the knife. Excellent! I have another at work because they don't permit dangerous "metal" knives. The ceramic is sharper but they have no problem with it. So, I get to have a superior knife I'd pick first anyway for cutting up my lunch vegetables plus kudos for being a good citizen. Nice bonus! While I have a set of expensive German knives (which cut beautifully when sharp), I still reach for this one first.

This is a superb ceramic knife. I have two Jaccards and two Kyoceras. All have superb blades and cut beautifully. Tough meat slices like butter! The Jaccard has a better handle to hold and it doesn't get slippery when wet or greasy. All of mine go in the dishwasher and have suffered no ill effects. I'm so glad I took the plunge and have given several as presents to rave reviews.

Looks good seems to be well constructed and cuts well. I think the edge is beveled as a work blade as it failed my acid test for sharpness in that I can not shave with it. It does how ever cut steak quite nicely as well as raw carrots which after all is what I bought it for.

I have used a few ceramic knives and they have been okay but this one is really superior and has a handle that fits my hand perfectly.

Having arthritis makes it difficult to hold on to some knife handles the designer of this one may not have had that in mind but it certainly works well for me.

The blade is extremely sharp and cuts through hard parsnips and soft tomatoes with equal ease.

(#1 REVIEWER)I was looking to buy a ceramic utility knife and compared several brands of ceramic knives including Kyocera, Cuisinart, Newport, Forever, and Jaccard knifes.

The features that were important to me:

1) 4"-5" inch utility knife

2) Sheath to keep the very sharp blade covered for safety

3) Ergonomic handle which protects the knuckle from the blade

4) Good performance based on other people experiences

I started looking at Kyocera knifes but the handle shape and the lack of sheath lead me to this Jaccard knife that fit all of my requirements. I have used it for a week now, and I am very pleased. It is very sharp and easy to handle, comfortable to hold and it fits snugly into its sheath for storage. I've never sliced apples as thinly as I can do with this knife. The price was not the primary considerations, but I liked that it fell in the middle of the price range for the ceramic knives of this size. I think it is a good value.

I am attaching a collage of three photos:

1) Photo #1 show the under side of the handle. I find it to be very comfortable.

2) Photo #2 shows the knife next to the sheath on a ruler. You can see that the knife is 4 inches and the handle is slightly over 4 inches.

3) Photo #3 shows the knife in its sheath. The sheath goes on easy, but stays fairly tight. If I hold the knife with the point down the sheath does not slip off.

A ceramic knife does have limitations. It works very well on fruits, vegetables, and boneless meat. But it should not be used to cut bones as this is like to chip the knife. It also should not be used to cut frozen foods. The knife should not be used for prying things open or other tasks that would cause the knife to flex. Finally, the instructions say to use the knife only on wooden or plastic boards and not use it to cut on glass, stone, marble or tile.

A nice feature of the knife (since it is not metal) is that it is rust free and it does not transfer metals to foods you cut, and it is the metals which cause foods like apples to brown.

The Jaccard knifes come with lifetime warranty replacement guarantee. Should the knife becomes damaged for any reason, Jaccard will replace it for free with "no questions asked". To activate the warranty you need to register within 90 days of purchasing the knife.

Ceramic Knives maintain their factory edge 15 times longer than stainless steel. If you feel your knife needs sharpening Jaccard will sharpern the knife at no charge. The $5 shipping charge is mentioned for replacements, and even though it is not mentioned explicitly for resharpenining I suspect it would apply to re-sharpening as well. Contact number for blade sharpening is 1-866-4478-7373.

overall, I am pleased with the knife and recommend it.
