(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.

Doesn't matter what it's made out of, all that makes something sharp is the edge :p . I think technically the sharpest knife isn't even a solid :p .

I believe the ceramic knives are usually based off of zirconia though, while obsidian is more like a volcanic glass.

While I like ceramic knives, they shatter pretty easily and for that reason I don't see them replacing stainless steel knives at least for commercial use.  At home they are nice as they don't need to be sharpened much at all, but the shatter risk is still there.

I have to agree with you, they keep their edge forever it seems but chipping them is as easy as tossing silverware in the sink.

Yeah, the one that I used to have got chipped by my wife bad enough that I had to toss it and she just lightly dropped it into the sink to be washed.  For commercial use, unless you are a chef with your own set of knives that you bring to and from work, they would break far too often to be useful especially since most kitchen staff are trained how to sharpen knives.

Not necessarily, as some ceramic blades now are super-heated so they aren't as brittle, but it depends on the blade. 

I would never recommend having just ceramic knives, as they aren't good for cutting or chopping through bones and some other things, but having a couple ceramic knives to supplement your stainless steel knives works great.

I will have to find it. It's the fabled "sharpest knife in the world" because it cuts through metal as well as normal cook-y, knifey stuff.
