Kyocera Ceramic Knife Sharpening
Oceania Trade Link is the sole agent and distributor of Kyocera Ceramic Knives in Australia. We are proud to be associated with such a company as Kyocera who manufactures products to the highest standard.
Whilst ceramic knives are typically sharper than steel knives and their sharpness is retained for longer, they do require attention after constant use. Kyocera does not recommend using a home knife sharpening tool because the ceramic knife is harder than any sharpening steel. If you do not have a Kyocera Electric Diamond Sharpener, Oceania Trade Link will facilitate professional sharpening with a diamond wheel that is used in the original manufacturing process for you.
