Kyocera's Premier Elite Series features its finest HIP ceramic blade for superior strength and sharpness. The ceramic blades are manufactured using hot isostatic pressing (HIP) technology and the material is then sintered at a temperature of 1,500°C and a pressure of up to 20,000 t/m². The blades are subsequently finished with the traditional sand garden wave structure. This etched design on the blade is a reminiscent of the traditional Japanese zen sand garden (karesansui).
Benefits:
1) Lightweight and perfectly balanced. Ideal for everyday slicing of boneless meats, fruits and vegetables
2) The premium ceramic blade is Hot Isostatically Pressed (HIP) which provides superior strength and sharpness compared to Kyocera’s traditional white ceramic blade
