I know very little about Sabatiers. I met with a new chef instructor at the school. Will be teaching sharpening in her class of beginning students. In her knife bag were the usual suspects Victorinox, Mercer etc. I noticed what looked like a Sabatier handle and sure enough a carbon Sab.
It has patina & stains on the blade but no pitting at all. Very little wear looks like never sharpened much. The handle needs some First Aid. I offered to grind down the finger guard at the heel. Inspecting the blade think it is an older Sab. No stamps at all on ebony handle. Blade--K Sabatier-- Acier Forge-- Made In France. Most Sabs have the ring bolster after the finger guard. Not this knife the Ebony butts right up against finger guard. Like the blanks that guy sells on E-Bay. Can any of you Sab experts give me info on this knife?
