Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Sabatier Laguiole Wenge Wood 6-Piece Steak Knife Set in Wood Storage TrayCustomer Review: Sabatier Laguiole steak knives Summary: 1 Stars
I found the steak knives to be a very poor example of Laguiole. The price ... was very fair, and did not expect the quality to match knives from the Laguiole region much more expensive. But these were very light weight, and the blades of no better than promotional steak knives on TV
Description of Sabatier Laguiole Wenge Wood 6-Piece Steak Knife Set in Wood Storage TrayInspired by a celebrated French design, the six 4-1/2 inch knives in this set cut steaks, chops, and roasts into bite-size pieces while imparting a hint of ornate chateau manners and crystal chandeliers. The knives have stainless-steel blades and accents on handles clad in wenge wood, a beautiful, dark gray, dense wood from central Africa prized for carving. The design was inspired by the celebrated Laguiole knife, which originated in 1829 in a French mountain village of the same name. Farmers folded the knives into their pockets. Today, Laguiole knives are made in Thiers, the French cutlery center, according to the original design. Elongated pistol-grip handles are secured by three rivets and decorated with a tiny stainless-steel bee, homage to the bee on Napoleon I's Imperial emblem. The blades' fine serrations tend to tear rather than slice precisely through steak fibers. The knives come in a wood tray for safe storage on the counter or in a drawer. --Fred Brack
