Why This Knife Works

At 230mm, this Sabatier Nogent flexible slicer steps up from the standard 200mm to offer greater reach for larger cuts - whole sides of salmon, full roasts, or long terrines where a shorter blade would require repositioning mid-stroke. The flexible carbon steel blade follows the natural contours of the food, reducing waste and producing clean, even slices in a single confident pull. Carbon steel at this length is a professional's choice: it sharpens to a finer edge than stainless, responds beautifully to a whetstone, and develops a patina that speaks to years of proper use and care. A 230mm flexible Sabatier Nogent in carbon steel is an exceptional find.

Care and Maintenance

• Hand wash only - never dishwasher
• Dry immediately and thoroughly after every use to prevent rust
• Apply a light coat of food-safe mineral oil or camellia oil to the blade after drying
• Hone regularly on a fine honing rod to maintain the edge
• Sharpen on a whetstone - carbon steel responds exceptionally well
• Store in a knife roll or protective sleeve - the long flexible blade needs protection from contact
