Sharpro ceramc knives are extremely hard(8.2on the mohs hardness scale,vs.stell at 5-6Mohs, and diamond at 10 Mohs), Wear resistant, and chemically inert.

The base material, zirconium oxide, was originally developed in industrial applications where hardness, wear resistance and non-reactivity are necessary, and metal components don't quite reach such standards.

The Knives are made by bonding the minute zirconium particles with heat in a process called sintering.Compared to other ceramic knives, Sharpro's are made with submicron size powder, whose density is higher, resulting in a harder blade.

These chemically inert blades provide a viable alternative for use by people with certain allergies to alloys in metal knives.Great for boaters , and seaside homes, as they do not rust.

Under normal household circumstances. your Sharpro may take3-5 years or more before it needs sharpening. It won't stain, and it is guaranteed for 5 years.

With the possible exception of the tip, your ceramic knife will not break or shatter if dropped. And most damaged tips can be repaired under the 5-year warranty.

Fathered edge of Sharpro knives makes them as sharp as a razor blade.

The tang extends well into the handle to create a strong connection.

A  counter weight is added to the ABS handle of all but the paring knife, for better balance.
