Santoku Knife and Peeler Set Or

The sharpest knife in the drawer
I already owned the 5.5 pink knife and loved it. It's the knife I grab about 98% of the time for everyday use, and I cook a lot. Sometimes I get in the 'zone' and don't use my brain. You canNOT use any ceramic knife for hard or frozen foods. The knife comes with a leaflet that fully explains the do's and don'ts. I knew better but didn't do that and the blade snapped in a big chunk. This was totally my careless stupidity. I loved this knife so much I bought this set right away, with the peeler, at a better price than what I spent originally. I see this is available in white, black, or pink handle. I like the pink handle b/c it shows up easily in the drawerful of knives and utensils. No hunting for it, I want it at the ready. It feels comfortable in the hand. The knife never needed sharpening in all the 5 yrs I owned it. So if you just don't try to cut a frozen piece of ginger with it like I did, it will last you a long time.

Update 8/24/13: I just bought another...

Warning...
These ceramic blades are VERY sharp, to the point of not even knowing when you have been sliced. I got a small cut on my thumb just from lightly running it across the blade, and that was very lightly.
We all know that tomato skins aren't thick but hard to cut thru with a dull knife. This knife sliced them up effortlessly!
Based on one week's worth of cutting I can confidently state that this will be my sharpest knife for years. And, who cares if they are pink?? Buying them this way, as a set, is very economical.
Again, watch your fingers because these ceramic blades are extremely sharp.

Beautiful set
This set is beautiful, nicely packaged and arrived in a very timely fashion! The knife is nice, sharp and light. The peeler is a must if u have one of those old hand peelers!
