Expert Review and Insights
The Sabatier name carries a lot of weight in the kitchen, and this set lives up to the reputation. It's a proper workhorse collection, not a flashy display piece. The balance is spot-on, and the blades are sharp straight out of the wallet. It's an incredibly solid investment for any professional kitchen looking for reliability without a ridiculous price tag.

- Pro: The selection is spot on; it covers 99% of daily prep tasks.
- Con: The included peeler feels basic compared to the quality of the knives.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
"The Oarsman's Inn," a bustling riverside pub in Norwich, needed to upgrade its kitchen tools. Their collection of ageing, mismatched knives was slowing down prep and causing inconsistencies between chefs.
"We brought in three of these Deglon Sabatier sets for the team. The difference was immediate. The lads are happier, the prep is faster, and the uniformity of the knives means everyone knows exactly what tool they're reaching for. It's just made the whole line smoother."
Michael Davies – Head Chef
The move resulted in a noticeable improvement in morale and a reduction in daily prep time by an estimated 20%.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Before the first use, carefully unroll the wallet and remove each knife.
- Give each item a thorough wash with warm, soapy water to remove any factory residue, then dry completely.
- Familiarise yourself with each knife and its intended purpose for maximum efficiency.
- Store the wallet in a secure, accessible location in your kitchen, away from heat and moisture.
Keeping It Going
- To preserve the blade's ultimate sharpness, we recommend hand-washing even though the set is dishwasher safe.
- Use the included sharpening steel to hone the blades regularly—a few strokes before each major use is ideal.
- Always dry your knives thoroughly before returning them to the wallet to prevent any water spots or corrosion.
- Never use your knives to cut on hard surfaces like metal, stone, or glass, as this will dull the edge instantly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the main difference between the three cook's knives in the set?
A: The size. The 10" is for heavy-duty chopping of large vegetables, the 6" is a great all-rounder, and the 4" is perfect for smaller, more delicate tasks like chopping herbs or small fruit.
Q: Are these knives 'full tang'?
A: These knives are expertly constructed for professional use, with the blade extending into the handle to provide excellent balance and durability, which is characteristic of quality Sabatier commercial kitchen knives.
Q: How often should I use the sharpening steel?
A: The steel is for honing, which realigns the blade's edge. It's best practice to give the knife a few passes along the steel before each significant use to maintain its sharpness.
Q: Are the thermoplastic handles slippery when wet?
A: No, they are designed specifically to provide a secure and comfortable grip, even in the wet and demanding conditions of a professional kitchen.
Q: What is a palette knife used for?
A: A palette knife is incredibly versatile. It's used for spreading ingredients like icing or butter, lifting delicate items, or even for cleaning surfaces.
Q: Is this a good set for a professional chef?
A: Absolutely. This Deglon Sabatier 8 piece chef knife set is specifically designed to meet the rigorous demands of a commercial kitchen environment, making it ideal for professionals.
Q: Is the roll-up wallet included with the purchase?
A: Yes, the 8-piece set comes complete with the black roll-up wallet for safe and convenient storage and transport.
Q: Why is a boning knife different from a fillet knife?
A: A boning knife typically has a stiffer, more pointed blade for separating meat from bone. A fillet knife is thinner and more flexible to allow it to glide over the bones of a fish.
The Deglon Sabatier Legacy: More Than Just a Sharp Edge
When you choose Deglon Sabatier, you're not just buying a set of knives; you're investing in over a century of French cutlery heritage. Forged in the heart of Thiers, the cradle of French knifemaking, this brand represents a promise of performance and endurance. While specs tell you about the steel and handle, they don't capture the confidence that comes from using a tool with such a trusted pedigree. These Sabatier commercial kitchen knives are built to withstand the relentless pace of a professional service, day after day. This long-term reliability means fewer replacements, consistent results, and a happier, more efficient team. It's an investment in the smooth operation of your business, ensuring that your most essential tools will never let you down when the pressure is on.
Explore more from Deglon SabatierWhy Thermoplastic Handles are a Chef's Best Friend
Ever wondered why professional knives often skip traditional wooden handles? It comes down to performance and hygiene, and that's where thermoplastic handles excel. Think of them as the all-terrain tyres of the kitchen. Unlike wood, which is porous and can absorb moisture and bacteria, thermoplastic is a solid, non-porous material. This means it's incredibly easy to clean and far more hygienic, which is a massive plus for any commercial kitchen.
More than that, they're built for grip. Even when your hands are wet or a bit greasy from prep, the material offers a secure, comfortable hold, reducing slippage and increasing safety during fast-paced work. They are also incredibly tough, resisting the cracks and splits that can plague wooden handles after months of use and washing. It’s a modern material for the demands of a modern kitchen.
