Sabatier Carbon Steel Nogent Style Knives with Ebony Handles

Thiers-Issard have been hand-crafting knives in Thiers France under the Sabatier brand with the **** Elephant logo for over 150 years. At one time, many companies crafted fine knives in Thiers, just as they once did in Sheffield and Solingen. As the cutlery industry declined in Thiers, many factories closed down. When they did, Thiers-Issard was often there to buy out what was left. In so doing, Thiers-Issard amassed a huge collection of pre-war carbon steel forgings. Pre-war French chefs' knives were typically nogent style, that is with a tang that is inserted into a one piece handle, rather than riveted scales like the best knives of today. The Sabatier nogent knives that we are offering here are all carbon steel knives that have been ground by Thiers-Issard from pre-war forgings in their collection. These knives are of historical importance and when these are gone there will be no more. The Best Things is the exclusive US importer of Thiers-Issard Sabatier nogent style knives. The quantities available are very limited in some patterns. Remember, while these Sabatier knives are recently ground, the forgings they are made from are all more than 60 years old

Stainless steel cutlery is certainly more care free, but nothing can match the edge retention and ease of sharpening of fine carbon steel knives like these from Sabatier. Of course, if you neglect carbon steel knives they will rust. Carbon Steel knives by Sabatier have an amazing ability to keep a sharp edge. Over time, Sabatier carbon steel knives will develop a pleasing patina. This is a unique opportunity to own French chefs' knives of historical interest.

Please Note: Several companies share the right to use the Sabatier name. Only Thiers-Issard uses the elephant logo and this distinguishes the French made Sabatier knives which we sell. It is our belief that these are the finest French made knives available today.
