The company is launching an iconic Chowa knife range to mark 40 years of knife making.
In 2024, Kyocera will celebrate 40 years of knifemaking using high-performance ceramics. The company is marking the occasion by launching a new range called Chowa, which is available in various colours and models from this month.
Having sold a total of over 20 million ceramic knives worldwide, Kyocera has established an alternative to steel knives for both amateur and professional chefs.
The Japanese word Chowa means striving for harmony, which is evident in the new range, thanks to a combination of Japanese craftsmanship and technical know-how.
The new range stands out for its harmonious design and its performance. The ergonomic, lightweight, soft-touch handle fits comfortably in the hand. Made of Z212 zirconia ceramic, the blade excels with high wear resistance and keeps its sharpness for twice as long as conventional ceramic blades.
Inspired by the traditional Japanese hammer, the handle feels supple in the hand and its shape prevents wrist fatigue. Furthermore, the range is dishwasher safe, stainless and comes in eco-friendly, plastic free packaging.
