ceramic knife
A ceramic knife is a kitchen tool made from very hard, durable ceramic material, often zirconia. It’s lightweight, sharp, and retains its edge longer than metal knives. Unlike traditional knives, ceramic blades don’t rust or stain, making them easy to maintain. They’re ideal for slicing fruits, vegetables, and boneless meats. However, ceramic knives are brittle and can chip or break if dropped or used on hard surfaces. They require careful handling but offer excellent cutting performance with less maintenance, making them popular for specific kitchen tasks.
