WHAT A GREAT NON-STICK COATING! Another beautiful attribute of the beautiful pictures on each blade is that they also serve as a highly durable nonstick coating, which makes cutting, slicing and paring far easier, so even the thinnest cucumber slice just slides right off the blade! Imagine how much faster, easier and enjoyable knives will make all your food preparation. So the sheer pleasure of cooking will be enhanced — another beautiful advantage of using Knives.
