Grind your own ceramic knives – with the diamond knife sharpener from Kyocera

Kyocera at Ambiente 2010 (Hall 3, Stand A40)


21 January 2010 - Kyoto / Neuss, 21 January 2010 – The Japanese technology corporation Kyocera, one of the pioneers of ceramic knife blades and with sales of more than 5 million ceramic knives since 1984, is extending its product portfolio of kitchen utensils to include a diamond-coated grinder. It allows even the extremely hard ceramic blades of the Kyocera knives to be conveniently ground by hand. Kyocera is premiering the diamond knife sharpener in Germany at Ambiente in Frankfurt (12 to 16 February 2010) in Hall 3, Stand A40.

Perfect equipment for ceramic knives: the electric diamond knife sharpener from Kyocera. The grinder is a practical kitchen aid intended for household use. Its unique feature is the diamond-coated grinding wheel which is able to restore even the extremely hard Kyocera ceramic blades to their accustomed sharpness. Because of this, the knives no longer have to be taken to a specialist service provider.

The sharpener starts up at the press of a button, and the grinding wheel continues rotating until you remove your finger from the button. A few forwards and backwards movements through the slit provided are all it takes to resharpen the blade. The grinding angle is preset and ensures optimum results. Thanks to the ergonomic design, the application is very easy to use. The grinding wheel can be replaced when necessary.

Kyocera’s diamond knife sharpener will be available in Germany as from April. The sharpener is suitable for Kyocera ceramic knives and Japanese steel knives. The recommended retail price is 85,00 Euros.
