There is a German Knife maker/seller that offers ceramic alloys that are much less expensive than Kyocera. The company name is Bokker. Do a google search and see what they have to offer in their kitchen knives. They offer lines of ceramic, titanium, the alloy cera-titan, and varoious grades of damascus and stainless steel. But they aren't cheap. I have purchased specialty knives from the company and have been pleased with the quality. I just bought a rescue knife for my eldest son, as he is going to be a fire-fighter/rescue worker. The knife is for cutting seat belts and rope.
