Has anyone used the Kyocera Diamond ceramic knife sharpener with the Ozeri knives? Reviewers say that it doesn't work with some brands.

I don't think you can sharpen these knives manually or else it will void the warranty.

Never ever sharpen ceramic knives yourself. They require a professional. If they are treated well and correctly, they won't need sharpening often and should last for many many years.

We use a ceramic knife sharpener. They do get dull but carry a pretty good edge. I would recommend these to you. My wife loves them.

I would not recommend this! Most ceramic knives are zirconium dioxide, which is a very hard material. Unfortunately the product does not specify what carbide the course blade is, but the cheapest carbides fall above zirconium dioxide in hardness, so I'm guessing the coarse side would work for you. But the fine side with the ceramic inserts is almost assuredly zirconium dioxide as well, so you will be scratching both the knife and the sharpener, making the sharpener nearly useless pretty quickly on the one side. That said, as long as you stay with the course side and are careful, you could still make a ceramic knife sharper.

I bought an electric sharpner. It works great on them. I've never had good results with the ones that come with the set.

Mine worked perfectly on a dozen knives. They discolored the ceramic that returned to normal when I applied oil. The discoloration was metal filings loading up the pores.

I can't say if it will sharpen ceramic knives, I don't own any ceramic knives, but I can tell you that I thought this sharpener is an inferior product. I believe I am qualified to say that because I am a retired furniture maker for 46 years.

You have to use the same process for chips as you do for resharpening the knives and send it back to Kyocera. As long it's only a small chip they should be able to fix it. Here's the info link. https://www.google.com/url?q=http://www.kyoceraadvancedceramics.com/media/document/Warranty-Sharpening-form-2012.pdf&sa=U&ei=7iMyUan3EebmiwLEm4D4AQ&ved=0CDcQFjAA&usg=AFQjCNHqdkhAiquN2Be25nD2YbX6URH-sA I hope this helps.

The S30V steel in the Kershaw Blur holds an edge very well and is not that hard to sharpen with the right system. I use the KME sharpening system with the diamond stones. Other diamond stones will work just as well but the KME system keeps the angle of sharpening consistent thereby saving time.

Yes, this sharpener also works with other thin bladed knives. Thicker forged knives also work, but not easily.

So much better! I have both and the Lansky sharpener is my go-to. The weight of the Lansky sharpener gives me a better grip, and the quality of their ceramic stone is much greater. I get a better edge with the Lansky sharpener.

Yes But recently I have been using ceramic knives,the ceramics do hold an edge much longer. The henkels are great but you do need to keep them sharp either with a ceramic,pr diamond steel or a sharpening service or device.... I love my good knives,sharp....

Sorry for the delay. I use a sharpener from Farberware ~ it has a double (v-type) wedge that sharpens quick and nicely. I hope this helps it is not too late.

I am using German knives in my kitchen and this sharpener works great. I am sure it will work just as good on Japanese knives, hope this helps.

cutco offers free sharpening service with their knives, I have this sharpener and would recommend it but would not use it on cutco knives.... it may void their warranty.
