Mike Mason has just sold this set of Sabatier Knives:
During the sale, Mike implied that these knives had some sort of heritage by stating both that Napoleon once visited the factory where they were made, and that this 'company' had been making knives since the 19th century. However, as Wikipedia states:

Of course, there is no way of knowing the true quality of this particular knife set. :thinking:

The name Sabatier is considered to imply a high-quality knife produced by one of a number of manufacturers in the Thiers region of France using a fully forged process; the knives of some of these manufacturers are highly regarded. However, the name "Sabatier" came into use before intellectual property laws and is not protected; knives legally bearing the name range from high-quality knives made in France to cheap mass-produced products of poor quality from France and other countries; a registered logo or full name, or both, such as "65 Sabatier Perrier", is necessary to establish origin and quality.
