Prediction: you'll find that they're no better for very thin slicing than a
relatively inexpensive Japanese knife like a Shun, very fragile, have
uncomfortable handles, have to be sent off to be sharpened when they finally do
dull, and you'll ditch the ceramic within a year.

At least that was my experience. YMMV.
