Sabatier Knives And How To Maintain A Sharp Edge In The Kitchen

By Patrick D Kelly

Sabatier knives are the quality knives to use in the kitchen.

You can maintain their sharp edge by keeping them in a wooden knife block and using a wooden board when cutting your meat and vegetables. The sharp edge gives a clean cut to the meat.

They are easy to use in the kitchen and allow for the faster preparation of a quick meal as the meat and vegetable pieces can be cut in a short time.

After a long day at work, what you really want is a quick preparation of dinner, and my Sabatier knives really help in cutting down time in the kitchen and more time enjoying a nutritious meal.

It’s great to know your way around the kitchen. Not only can this help you if you’re cooking for a large family, but it’s also ideal if you’re simply a bachelor.

Knives to last a lifetime

Once you’ve experienced some fine Wustof, J.A. Henckle, Al Mar or Sabatier knives in your kitchen, you won’t want the cheaper variety. The higher cost is well worth the lifetime of use.

Currently I use a mix of cutlery in my kitchen. I have a high quality Wustof chef’s knife for most of my slicing and dicing. I have a J.A. Henckle serrated bread knife that performs flawlessly.

I have an Al Mar paring knife that will peel virtually anything. And finally I have a set of 6 Sabatier knives for steak dinners. These tools all work wonderfully and I treat them with the utmost respect.

How to look after your knife

Now, you’re probably wondering how I treat a knife with respect. That’s easy. First of all, you wash each of them by hand and towel-dry them. Kitchen cutlery is often high in carbon, which allows it to hold a great edge, but it will also rust easily.

I hone each edge on a steel sharpening rod before use. This touches up the blade and refines it a bit for ideal cutting. I always store my kitchen cutlery in a nice wooden knife block. I don’t want anything bumping the blades or edge in particular. Especially not other metals such as silver wear.

Wooden cutting board is best

And finally, only cut on a wooden or plastic surface. I prefer a wooden cutting board over plastic, but to each his/her own. Never cut on metal or ceramic plates. This dulls the blade terribly.

Okay, now you may be interested in some Sabatier knives or fine Wustof kitchen cutlery. I think every home should have a quality knife set in the kitchen.

This is the only way to go. Find J.A. Henckle, Wustof, Sabatier knives, and a variety of other online or in your local kitchen store.

Wiltshire Staysharp knives

I also use a pair of Wiltshire knives that I keep in their sharpening cases. They were given to me as a gift and I use them when I need to cut something that is particularly difficult to cut, for example a large roasted turkey.

I cut it all up just before the family arrives and I put the cuts of turkey meat on a large serving plate and place it on the middle of the table, for everyone to pick their choice pieces.

The meat is so delicious, the serving plate is empty within 45 minutes, so I have go back to the oven and pull out the turkey and cut some more.

Using the quality knives with their sharp edges, more delicious turkey pieces are on the table within minutes.
