The weight is light, the control delicate and this knife is a pleasure to use in every way. While a big Chef's Knife can be heavy and wieldy to use for significant kitchen duty, this slicer is long, sleek, agile and completely effective as a top of the line performer for the culinarily inclined. A college chum once didn't feel worthy of a particular tool he had purchased - if you are devoted in a culinary way, make a few core tools your partner for life and pay them respect through devoted use and care.

Honestly, this slicer may or may not bring out the Errol Flynn in you while in the kitchen, but it is certainly what I would classify as an elegant knife. When you have need for a slicing knife, few knives are as beautiful as they are effective. Simple. No compromise. Powerful, basic tool. Rounds out any small essential array of kitchen knives, or becomes a prized solution in a well appointed kitchen. Treat yourself - enjoy this knife for a lifetime. Steel with each use!
Description of Sabatier Au Carbone 10-Inch Carbon Steel Slicing KnifeAn excellent knife maker, Sabatier is one of the few companies left that still make a line of pure carbon steel blades, which take a sharp edge better than any other material. For many chefs, this sharp edge more than makes up for minor discolorations that occur with age. At ten inches, this carver is an ideal length for larger roasters. Whether you're serving poultry, beef, lamb, or wild game, this knife slices smoothly through any cut of meat. A full tang provides good alignment and balance, and three brass rivets in the handle add structural strength, but may rust. Hand wash with mild soap and dry immediately for long life. When you take it to get sharpened, verify the sharpener knows how to handle carbon steel--it's a bit different than regular stainless and you'll want to take full advantage of its special sharpening properties. --Meg Heffernan
