K Sabatier Authentique Chef's Knife 150mm - HIGH CARBON STEEL Made In France

Experience the Authentique in Its Most Agile Form

The K Sabatier Authentique Chef's Knife 150mm is forged in Thiers, France from high carbon steel - a compact, nimble blade that delivers the full performance of the Authentique line in a size that excels at precise, controlled work and quick, responsive cuts.

The Specs

• Steel: High carbon steel, forged in a single mass - 54-56 HRC

• Handle: Black POM, hand-set on the tang with three brass rivets
• Construction: 100% forged - tempered, ground, and polished crosswise
• Origin: Handcrafted in Thiers, France

The Authentique Difference

The Authentique line represents K Sabatier at its most refined. High carbon steel achieves greater hardness than standard carbon, holding a finer, longer-lasting edge through demanding use. At 150mm, this is the chef's knife for cooks who prefer speed and agility over size - trimming, slicing smaller cuts, breaking down poultry pieces, and all the precise mid-size tasks where a full-length blade feels like too much. Forged from a single mass of steel, the blade, bolster, and tang are one continuous piece for exceptional balance. The black POM handle is hand-set on the full tang with three brass rivets.

Care & Maintenance

• Hand wash only - never dishwasher
• Wipe dry immediately after use - high carbon steel will rust if left wet
• Apply a light coat of food-safe oil occasionally to protect the blade
• Sharpen with a whetstone or professional sharpening service when needed
• A natural patina will develop with use - this is normal and protects the steel
• Store on a magnetic strip or in a knife block to protect the edge
