Look up the PowerRating of KYO and see how it has performed over the past week as well as the current proprietary PowerRating.

COSTA MESA, Calif., Oct 05, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- KYO | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Kyocera Advanced Ceramics is supporting Susan G. Komen for the Cure(R) by providing cooks a great opportunity to support the fight against breast cancer. Kyocera is offering a Special Edition Set: 5.5" Santoku Ceramic Knife & Y Peeler with ergonomic pink-colored handles (Model # FK140CP10NSE, MSRP: $79.95). Regularly priced at $9.95, the pink peeler is free. For each knife sold, $5.00 is donated to Susan G. Komen for the Cure(R). To date, Kyocera has donated $200,000.

Featuring our most popular style knife and peeler, this 2-piece set features a Revolution 5.5" Santoku Knife and Y Peeler. The Santoku Knife is the ultimate cutting tool for every day slicing of fruits, vegetables and boneless meats since it will remain sharp much longer than a conventional steel knife. The Y Peeler has an ultra sharp ceramic blade that will glide through food only peeling the needed amount and nothing more. Conveniently packaged together, it's the perfect pair for any home cook.

Kyocera has also recently reduced the prices on their premium lines of cutlery, KYOTOP Damascus and the Classic Series, with savings up to 25% off regular retail prices. The KYOTOP knives feature black Damascus blades that are fired a second time increasing the density of the advanced ceramic resulting in greater wear resistance. The Classic Series feature the original white blades with ergonomic pakka wood handles.

The Special Edition pink handled set along with the KYOTOP Damascus and Classic Series are available at premier specialty, gift and organic food retailers nationwide or direct from the website: www.KyoceraAdvancedCeramics.com.

About Ceramic Cutlery

Kyocera ceramic knives hold a razor-sharp edge 10 times longer than conventional cutlery, are chemically inert and typically half the weight of equivalent steel knives. Ceramic will not rust or transfer a metallic taste or smell, keeping foods fresh. Since the ceramic blade is so light, no artificial weight is added to the handle. This creates an extremely balanced, lightweight tool that becomes a comfortable extension of the hand, reducing fatigue during repetitive cutting tasks.
