Lion Sabatier Ideal Perigord 2pc Set - 10cm Paring/20cm Chef Knife

This set brings together two essential knives for cooking with precision and efficiency on a daily basis. It includes a paring knife, ideal for small cuts, and a 20 cm chef's knife, perfect for more generous preparations.

The paring knife, with its thin and handy blade, is designed for precise gestures: peeling fruit, cutting small vegetables, trimming meat or making delicate finishes.

The chef's knife, with its wide and robust blade, is the ultimate all-rounder. It allows you to chop, chisel, mince or slice larger volumes with fluidity, thanks to its curved shape that naturally accompanies the pendulum movement.

A perfectly complementary duo, designed for those looking for reliable, durable tools adapted to all stages of culinary preparation. This set of two knives features the iconic design of the Ideal collection, embellished with walnut wood handles. Their silhouette, both elegant and functional, embodies the shape of French kitchen knives, adopted in kitchens around the world.

Each knife is 100% forged, i.e. made from a single piece of steel heated and stamped at 1200°C. This process forms a single block – blade, bolster and tang – guaranteeing exceptional strength and remarkable durability.

Thanks to a balanced weight distribution, these knives offer a pleasant grip and reduce fatigue during prolonged cuttings. Their straight-backed blades are forged from nitrogen-enriched 4116 NITRO+ stainless steel, with a hardness between 58 and 60 HRC. This high-performance French steel, combined with a 12.5° cutting angle, ensures a precise cutting edge and excellent cutting hold, even in everyday use.

These knives find the perfect compromise between performance and ease of maintenance, thanks in particular to their high corrosion resistance. The walnut wood handle, with a fine grain and a warm, deep hue, brings a natural elegance and a touch of authenticity to each piece. Pleasant to the touch, it offers a comfortable grip and good resistance to humidity, provided that it is properly maintained. The three brass rivets ensure a secure fix, and the corbin at the end of the handle adds security.

Manufactured entirely in Thiers, the French capital of cutlery, these two knives embody all the know-how of Lion Sabatier. Like all 100% forged models in the Ideal range, they come with a limited lifetime warranty, reflecting the brand's commitment to quality and durability.
