Ideal Brass 2pc Set - 10cm Paring/18cm Santoku

Discover the exotic box, a perfect combination of Asian tradition and Western know-how. This knife duo has been designed to meet the needs of everyday cooking, combining precision and efficiency.

The set includes a paring knife, ideal for fine cuts and technical gestures, as well as a santoku knife, a must-have in Japanese cuisine, known for its versatility.

The paring knife, with its short, sharp blade, is perfect for peeling, cutting small fruits or vegetables, or working pieces of meat with precision. Its manoeuvrability makes it a tool of choice for delicate preparations.

The santoku, with a wide, honeycomb blade, makes it easy to quickly cut vegetables, herbs and meats. The dimples prevent food from sticking, ensuring a smooth and comfortable cut.

This set is aimed at cooking enthusiasts who are looking for reliable, high-performance knives suitable for a wide variety of recipes. This two-knife set features the iconic design of the Ideal collection, embellished with POM handles. Their silhouette, both classic 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 makes it possible to form a single block – blade, bolster and tang – guaranteeing exceptional strength and long-lasting longevity.

Thanks to a balanced weight distribution, these knives offer a pleasant grip and reduce fatigue during prolonged preparations. 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.

This enclosure offers an ideal compromise between performance and ease of maintenance, in particular thanks to its high resistance to corrosion. The POM handles, known for their resistance to moisture, thermal shocks and daily wear and tear, are ergonomic and ensure a comfortable grip, even during prolonged use. The three brass rivets ensure a secure fixing, and the corbin at the end of the handle adds a touch of 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.
