That's what I've heard. I almost got one a number of years ago but
was worried about the reports of brittleness. It would chip if used
on something too hard and shatter if dropped.
I just looked at Kyocera's website and the prices have come way
down. Of course they now have a new line of Damascus (pattern-weld)
looking blades that's double fired and more durable.
They say specifically that's it's for fruits, veggies and boneless meats.
