Description of Sabatier Prosteel 4- Inch High Carbon Stainless Steel Paring Knife
An 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 four inches, this paring knife is lightweight, razor-sharp, and a handy size for basic, everyday chopping and slicing--it's a knife you'll reach for often. The 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 a 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 HeffernanParing Knives
