Even the best steel needs to be sharpened at some point, and usually that’s exactly the case when a sharp knife is needed. Ideal is a folding knife with ceramic blade. The special ceramic industry, which is used for knife blades, has a hardness approaching that of a diamond. So there is no wear on the blade and the knife stays sharp almost indefinitely. Ceramic is also to anti-magnetic, corrosion-free and easy.
