I’m excited to offer another fun 12 Days of Christmas series at Deal Seeking Mom. Each day through 12/7, I’ll post a new 3-day giveaway! Browse all of the giveaways here.

I love kitchen gadgets of all kinds, so I was excited to try out the Shenzhen Ceramic Knives after reading about the many benefits that ceramic knives offer over traditional steel knives:
- Ceramic knives stay sharper longer. They’re harder than steel and will hold their edge longer.
- They will not rust and and are easy to clean.
- Ceramic knives won’t affect the taste of food or cause it to turn brown.
- They’re lightweight, making them easy and comfortable to use.
So what’s my verdict? They certainly are every bit as sharp as their website says. My finger can attest to that, LOL. The only drawback I can see? Because ceramic knives are very delicate, they can’t be used for more aggressive chopping and deboning, so you will still need to have several steel knives on hand for these tasks.
The good news is that Shenzhen Ceramic Knives are a fantastic price for the quality compared to many other highly recommended ceramic knives. So if you’re looking for a good set of ceramic knives at a bargain price, this set fits the bill!

Four Deal Seeking Mom readers will each win a 3-piece Shenzhen knife set (chef’s knife, slicing knife and paring knife) and peeler.

I run my knives over a steel every time I use them. I take them in to be professionally sharpened once a year. I’ve had the same Forschner set for 27 years!

I ask my husband regularly to sharpen them, but he just doesn’t do it so I guess I fall into the buy it and that’s it category…by default. LOL
Susan
My husband sharpens the knives whenever he cuts meat, which is to say, not very often. We just bought a new set about a year ago and I believe a couple of the knives have been sharpened once or twice only.

I have never sharpened my knives up to this point but it is probably why I have trouble cutting sometimes. I think it may be a good idea to look into:)
April
Hmmm, I have never had my knives sharpened probably because I’ve never had a nice set to begin with.
Allison

I ask my husband to sharpen our knives about every 6 months. I’d love a set of ceramic knives because I heard that they are better at slicing sushi than steel knives.
Selene
I just buy them and hope for the best.

I have had my dad sharpen my one good knife once a few years ago…that could be why it always looks like a butcher everything.
Heather
I have a knife sharpener, but I am always afraid I wouldn’t do it right, so honestly, I have never sharpened them. BUt, I also don’t have a great set really worth sharpening. I would love to have a great set of knives!
