Hi, is this ceramic blade or steel? The description says that the ceramic (ceramicedge), but in the pictures i see the steel blade (ultraedge).

The blade is, indeed, stainless steel. The ceramic is between the head that attaches to the clipper and the blade. That's what helps keep the blade cooler during operation than blades without the ceramic "guard". Hopes this helps.

It's high-carbon stainless steel. To prolong it's life, it would be best to sharpen this knife with a ceramic sharpener. But I used a manual hand held one. The choice is up to you.

Hi,Tamikaokelly, yes the blade has screws and you can replace the Ceramic Edge if needed.

I have one and it is ceramic. A little thin but works well. The cutter is cheap but the wire holder is nice.

I believe this is high carbon stainless steel, not carbon material. I feel you can keep the blades sharp with regular ceramic honing. Mine are 9 months old and do not need sharpening. They are not Shun but for a fun, sharp set are a good value.

I'm sorry, but I don't know. I don't have any ceramic knives. My best guess would be Yes.

I think it is 800? If you check, I think the sapphire sold as an add-on is 1,100. Personally, I think the blades look great with the ceramic. Just buy a cheap rubber eraser, the old school "toxic" type, to clean the stone.

diamond blade is only for tiles, you can get one blade for metal, what do you call thick steel..........

I bought this blade for my brother-in-law. I know it was black and yellow, but I don't remember if it look exactly like the picture. The blade worked very well for me.

Hello, The blade is made of 1045 high carbon steel. The blade is not sharp enough for use but the tip is sharp so be cautious. It's definitely a great showpiece.

I use a ceramic stick on my blade. The ceramic stick has two ceramic bearings that I pull the blade through two times first. Then sharpen. I have never put it through any type of grinding wheels. Be care if you practice throwing it, I broke the tip off of one of my blades. The ceramic stick I purchased was from an industrial/commercial knife/tool sight many years ago while working for a meat processor. This knife is one of the most used tools I have on the farm. It goes everywhere with me, so I keep it sharp.

A ceramic sharpener, or rather honer, can deal with all kinds of steel. A steel will not give you the same finish on the harder steels used in Asian knives. The main disadvantage to ceramic sharpeners is their fragility. One drop to the kitchen floor, and back to Amazon for you. I do recommend them over steel.

This tool will NOT ceramic. To cut ceramic you will need a tool that has a diamond edge or blade to cut.

i dont know, it's a Chinese steel. very tough . i would buy it again. unless you live in a area that gets down past -10. then the blade might chip. but for the rest of us it's a awesome knife.

This blade is metal and there is a small white ceramic piece behind the blade.

It comes with a Dianond blade for cutting ceramic tile. I use the drop in method and try torning the tile over and cut on the back side. But Im thinking of no chip out on the front. Try the front too. See how that turns out. It is out in my tool house tonight. Ill look at it tomorrow and see what's printed anywhere I can see it. The rpm you want. I love it. Sure made short work of Hardi siding.
