Klok ceramic knives at Ocean State Job Lot

[javaandjazz]

I know Job Lot sells a lot of junk but just looking at their latest sale flyer and they have a brand of ceramic knives by Klok. Never heard of the name and there isn't anything on the interent about them. Does anyone know anything about them? I have been curious about ceramic knives and was wondering if this cheap brand would be worth trying. I am thinking they are junk if they are at Job Lot?

so I happened to be in the Job Lot store and saw the knives in passing and decided to pick one up. I bought a small santoku knife for $12.00 and have used it twice so far cutting up onions and pepperoni and it seems to have worked fine. It's very light weight and comfortable to hold.

Just for grins I picked up a couple of very cheap ceramic knives at Harbor Freight.
To my surprise, I liked them. They work well, and I don't care if anything happens to them due to the under$10 price.

Since no one has replied, I will. No, I have not heard of Kolk. Personally, I prefer metal knives over ceramic. If you are going to try a ceramic knife, I say try a paring knife. It is cheaper, and it is shorter and therefore less likely to break. One of the major concern of ceramic knives is their brittle nature.

Thanks, that's what I thought!
