Can these be used to cut from the side. I need to cut ceramic with this from the side.

I used the largest bit and drilled holes on 20+ wine bottles . Some in the bottom of the bottle and some in the side of the bottle always using a atomizer water bottle to keep the bit cool. Product worked better than I anticipated

They will cut from the side, however the drill is difficult to hold. The small drills didn't last long!

No. Because the carbide tips are 3/16 in wide, They are offset 1/16 in to be able to cut 1/4 in, and reverse for 3/8 in cut. If you have a dado set you can use one of the outside blades as they are 1/8 in wide in most cases.

Yes, they are usable for left-handers, there is no preferred side of the spatula. They are the same on both sides.

I believe they can be used on any two-sided knife, which includes most Japanese knives. Shun's site says they have two edges, so should be fine.

Yes, I believe you could cut them with a hacksaw or other appropriate saw, as they are steel.

Yes. You can cut them with regular scissors. It was easier for me to cut before removing the backing.

I used this saw for a kitchen backsplash which had ceramic and glass tiles . I used the diamond blade that came with the saw to cut the ceramic only . For all my glass cuts I ordered the 7" QEP Glass Tile Diamond blade which I felt gave me very precise cuts, as my pieces were all 5/8" and the QEP blade was higher quality.

Good afternoon, we have had some people in the past do this, and had great succses, however, if you were to do this, we would not be able to take any return. They are solid core, so if you chose to cut them, it SHOULD work.Thanks,Aaron

I haven't tried, but honestly I'd be surprised if you could. I think you'll need something a little harder to sharpen ceramics.

Possibly for burnishing, but they are very dull, and wouldn't cut or carve anything more durable than wax or clay without sharpening. (Even then, I'm not sure.)

I use a ceramic 7 for everything almost, depends on the length you want though, before buying read what the blade cuts on length.

You would have to potentially turn them upside down to use them. As they are they are very stiff and heavy to cut so I imagine it would be uncomfortable. I would recommend the soft grip fiskars, might be the better option.

I cut these on my band saw, but you have to remember that there are spaces between each board and the bottom plastic frames are screwed on in several places, so sometimes you cut a piece and the piece you cut off comes apart into several pieces. You have to think about where you're cutting before cutting (also to make sure you're not cutting through one of the screws and ruin whatever blade you're cutting with). You could probably also cut with a hacksaw or scroll saw. You could cut the plastic section with a heavy duty type of scissors, but to cut the wood straight you'll need some kind of powered cutter. When cutting, I always laid the tile on the wood part. I never cut with the plastic side down, so sometimes you have to think backwards before cutting too. It's possible to cut, but not easy.

No, it's a great sharpener for steel knives and scissors. Ceramic blades require a diamond stone and should be powered for best results. The other issue with ceramic knives is their tendency to crack or break off due to stress cracks formed by pressure and loose bits. I leave mine to be be done by the manufacturer or other professional. Steel knives, no problem, I do it myself with products such as this one.

You probably can since the side pieces are each two pieces joined together. You wouldn't have the end caps for one set so be careful about bumping into the ends as they can be sharp.

I really don't know since I used mine the full length. They are metal so you'd have to use a hack saw to cut them and they may loose some integrity. We absolutely love ours.

it is a good question. I haven't used to cut ceramic tile yet. I will try my later and get back to you soon. thanks
