Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Sabatier Fuso 8-1/4-Inch Stainless Steel Chef's Knife

Customer Review: I cook for a living...
Summary: 2 Stars

I purchased this knife a year and a half ago on impulse, taken in by it's minimalist design, it is a beautiful concept but I paid RETAIL. It IS beautiful but... after 18 months of everyday use in a commercial kitchen I am selling it (at half price) to a younger sous chef that was taken in by the design. I hope that he can cope with it.
This knife is very high maintenance. Once I sliced some cured meat, Genoa Salami I think, plunged the knife into scalding hot, soapy water, rinsed and wiped her down with a clean cotton towel just as I do all of my knives after use. I guess that I didn't wipe hard enough along the cutting edge because after only 10 hours the "cure" had eaten three tiny pin point notches in the blade's edge. It's been a downhill relationship ever since. I can't cut this or that, the knife has a balance point too far back for a pro's liking, the edge is sooo delicate that it requires twice the "steeling" that my forged knives do ... it's a pain...good ridance.

Description of Sabatier Fuso 8-1/4-Inch Stainless Steel Chef's Knife

Ideal for rocking through chopping and mincing tasks, this 8-1/4-inch chef's knife is the proper size for most cooks, though others might prefer the 6- or 10-inch blades. Sleek, comfortable, beautifully balanced, and sturdy, Sabatier Fuso knives offer a contemporary alternative to traditional kitchen-knife design while hewing to the standard of forming blades from high-carbon stainless steel for strength and corrosion resistance. Though the blades are stamped and not forged, the quality of the steel is excellent. The striking design feature is the handle, which is made of satin-finish stainless steel, rounded to fit the hand comfortably, and seamlessly joined to the blade by high-tech laser soldering. The result is an airtight, hygienic joint that won't capture food particles. Fuso knives are dishwasher-safe, though hand washing better protects the edges. This knife carries a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack
