Hi guys, just want your opinion on what knife to get.
Ive narrowed my selection down to 2 very different knives.

7" Zwilling JA Henckels Japanese steel

6" Kyocera ceramic

Price is not an issue for me, I am just interested in which one will be the better knife for day to day use.
Thanks in advance.
 
Go with the steel knife.
There is the possibility, remote but a possibility, that the ceramic can break. The steel knife will last you for the rest of your life and you can leave it to me or your grandchildren.
Also the 7 inch blade is more usable in day to day use. 6 inch is small for some jobs.
I hope you have lifted these knives and held them in your hand. The choice of a knife depends greatly on the size of your hand and the heft of the knife.
 
I would select the 7" knife, but would prefer an 8" blade.

For that sort of money you want a knife that you will look after and keep sharp.
I would never buy a knife that I couldn't feel in my hand for comfort.
