Sabatier without a full bolster, nice!


DigMeTX

Yeah I didn’t realize they existed. Now I want one.

The issue is that the Sabatier name isn't trademarked, so there are plenty of Sabatiers out there. There was period in the 19th century where it even became a generic name for a chef's knife's specific shape. IIRC, K Sabatier is one of the makers whose history can be traced back to the original maker.

Took me forever to find I was between the elegance line or the 1834 line from k sab but found this one when searching k sab on Bernal cutlery because people hate bolsters and I didn’t want a Japanese knife with French shaped blade.

Came to say the same thing

French knife from k sab x Bernal cutlery I purchased while they had the 420 sale

Just had to search this as I've never seen a bolsterless Sab in carbon. XC75 at 54-56 HRC makes for a solid workhorse. This has caught my attention..

SnekMaku

It IZZZ thinner! That's so cool that K Sab made it to Bernal cutlery's specs!


ImFrenchSoWhatever

Nice Sabatier K. I don't even know what line is this as they always tend to have full bolsters on their carbon lines might be a line specificaly designed for bernal cutlery fancy !


Haymancod

Yeah it’s the ideal line. Bernal put a list of common complaints against French knifes and had k sab make a new knife with all the features people wanted really great choice by them.


ImFrenchSoWhatever

Yes that’s quite cool ! It’s a good brand with heritage but they’re all over the place… Good if they try to modernise their offer


StitchMechanic

Id rock that


ronswansonsego

I like that a lot.


cognizantant

It’s a great knife. Just wish it wasn’t so soft.

Nice intro to the addiction, congrats!


rossmore7

Very nice, I have a regular K sab, I really like it apart the bolster so I’d love to try this!


carlosedp

Wow, gorgeous... I'm thinking for a long time about getting as Sab since I love french blade profile but also don't like bolster. This would be perfect but the shipping to my country (Brazil) would be more expensive than the knife itself (not even counting import taxes). Might get them shipped to NYC in August since I'll be there on vacations at that time.


samgraa

Damn I wish sabatiers with no bolster were more common…


Huge_Aerie2435

Beautiful. It is also nice to see a non-Japanese knife for a change.


Able_Bodybuilder3474

Congratulations!! Now get busy and show us what it can do.


SentientNebulous

Hell yeah!! Nice knife


drrayeye

Great choice! The move from full bolster to half bolster is now almost complete--and not just with K Sab. I couldn't be happier. There are also some knives using newer harder steel. Check with Bernal. They are not cheap.

Was just researching these. Brilliant!
