This is an excellent quality, beautiful knife. I have used this type of knife for years, and find that I use it every time I cook. I replaced a less expensive one with this, and I am very pleased with the quality. Invest some [money] in the knife that you use most often; this one is worth the cost. A Chinese chef knife is not just for Asian cooking. Try it and you will be hooked.

I purchased this piece to fill the block Provence set given to my wife for a gift. The knife arrived in a little late, but in perfect shape. This a beautiful piece of cutlery, well balanced, very functional, and sharp as a razor. Unfortunately, it's too much a work of art to use every day, and instead, I have to fall back on my every day Sabatier sets for the usual prep work.

This knife serves well it's purpose: chopping up food into little bits for your stewpot, or whatever you happen to be brewing in your kitchen. The luscious wood handle is comfortable and has plenty of clearance -- you never have to worry about smacking your hand on the cutting board. The blade is curved enough to let you chop with a nice rocking motion through carrots, garlic, etc., and you can use the wide surface to scoop your veggie bits right into the pot. For tougher foods, like meat, you might need something with serrations, or a big ol' butcher knife for its inimitable chopping action (to cut away fat, for example).

beautiful knife. dull factory edge. requires professional sharpening. a good buy.

The Provence line of Sabatier are very good knives. They are well balanced and have great steel. For some reason however, Sabatier knives do not come from the factory sharpened; thus, one must have this done before the knives are used. I have talked to several knife store owners who say this is the case. They sharpen the knives before they sell them, but then you have to pay full retail price, which is a lot more then the sale price on Amazon plus a sharpening charge. This is also a great knife for doing things that a chef's or vegetable knife is supposed to do. It is not, however, a boning knife. If you buy this knife, it will probably become your favorite.

I just received this knife, and absolutely love it. It cuts like a dream, and at great price point too. I would definetly recommend this to anyone who is considering a new knife that does it all.

The knife is a great tool for the kitchen, cuts and chops very well. Problem I experienced is, the knife broke at the bolster when attempting to cut thru a chicken breast bone. To date I have not been able to get warranty information from Sabatier as to replacement. Knife was approx. 6 months old. Barb

When you recieve this product you have to destreoy the apckaging to get it out. If you dont like it you can't return it either. And the factory blade on this is really really dull. You ,will have to spend even more money to get the blade sharpened professionally. Your choice but i would highly recomend not buying it.

This was supposed to be available for immediate shipment. Why is it taking so long to get there.

Is there a telephone number or email to contact Customer Service.
