Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Sabatier Provence 8-Inch Chef's KnifeCustomer Review: I cook for a living... Summary: 5 Stars
First and foremost, this blade is equal to any German blade made...period. Sabatier produces this line in France and the quality of the steel and attention to detail is fabulous. I have owned one of these for 4 years and use it in rotation with the "other" brands sold here. I keep my knives sharp with a Arkansas fine grit whet stone (once a month, 8 strokes per side) and a 14 inch steel (EVERY time I use a blade, 5 strokes per side). So "edge" sharpness and quality is determined by me not the manufacturer. The qualities that set this knife line apart are the above mentioned details that are not found on any other mass manufactured cutlery. The scales (wooden grips) are stained a beautiful rosewood color, impregnated with resin under pressure for durability, mounted with brass rivets and then highly polished along with the tang, bolster and the top edge of the blade. No other mass manufacturer does this. Not a knife to put in the dishwasher...the chemicals dull the bright finish. Hand wash this beauty! This is the knife that I give as a gift on special occasions to special people in the "biz"....'nuf said.
Description of Sabatier Provence 8-Inch Chef's KnifeA good chef's knife becomes a daily kitchen companion. It's used for everything from prepping steaks for the grill to finely mincing onions, and chances are you'll reach for it every time you cook--so it better be good. This knife's attractive red-toned wood handle is chunky but comfortable, and lasts just as long as standard polypropylene--as with all Sabatier knives, hand washing is necessary. Its 8-inch blade length is the most practical for multipurpose use, and regular sharpening will keep the stainless-steel blade razor-sharp. It's moderately flexible, which makes it a versatile choice for vegetables or meats, and it works equally well for extra-fine mincing and slicing. --Jill Lightner
