My father has always used Sabatier and still to this day uses the set he was given for his graduation from Chef school some 40 years ago.

But are Stellar sabatier actually Sabatier?

Looking at the net it would seem that the two are quite separate, maybe a difusion range and the prime Sabatier range but they don't seem to appear together anywhere I can see with a limited look.

I have to say I agree with the buy two exceptional knives like the G2 I have and a smaller paring knife by Global, most chefs don't need a full set of different shapes, just a decent knife

It was an afterthought as I was contemplating the purchaseness of the bargainous bargain.

For the benefit of anyone left still thinking of ordering, make sure you scroll to the bottom of the page where you enter your address, even if you choose not to read the terms and conditions (I know some people get T&C fatigue).

They've arrived.

Although it's wiped out some, maybe most, of the saving, I ended up getting the knife block as well. Glad I did really as I know what would happen if I put them in a drawer given there's no contrast at all between the handle and blade. Already been to hospital once after doing that, thanks.

Anyway, they look OK. Not sure how well they'll work but I guess it's a sign of quality that one of them rattles (something trapped inside the hollow handle).
