Saber F-11 Working Chef Knives

We have a famous adage that goes this way, “it is not in the sword, but in the person who wields the weapon.” Of course, we could not contest this fact, but the quality of the “sword” is still a very significant parameter. After all, an individual can be so precise, but the accuracy can be reduced tenfold because of substandard tools.

It is therefore a matter of great consequence that a chef, or any individual who cares for some fine dining, to select a knife set for professional grade cutlery. For an apprentice on a tight budget, Saber offers a choice with its F-11 Working Chef Knives, a 12-piece knife set designed to accommodate a huge range of capabilities.

The set includes a 10-inch ham knife and another 10-inch chef knife; an eight inch bread knife, an eight inch chef knife, an eight inch slicer, a seven inch Santoku, a six inch utility knife, a five inch French boning knife, a 4 ½ inch paring knife, and a 3 ½ paring knife. To keep the knives in standard working condition, the set also includes a 10-inch sharpening steel and a carrying bag for the set.

The knives went through a 38 step manufacturing process, through which they were forged from a piece of proprietary German steel. The process includes heat treating and cryogenic freezing, thus ensuring the sharpness and stability of each blade. The knives each have a full tang with bolster to increase the strength of the user, a comfortable handle, and a scalloped or granton edge, which creates air pockets between the food and the blade to prevent the food from sticking to the blade, thus improving efficiency. It is not surprising, therefore, that the knife set carries a lifetime warranty.

The chef’s bag that comes with the set is more than a bonus for the person who bought the set just for the knives. Perfectly fit for a busy kitchen, the bag has concealed magnetic inserts and polymer sheaths to secure up to 13 knives in place. It also contains an extra pouch for smaller kitchen tools, and for easy transporting, it has a padded handle and a shoulder strap.

Saber F-11 Working Chef Knives Customer Reviews

Many users reported that they were overly satisfied with the quality of the knives. They did not expect that a knife set with such a small price could contain knives with state-of-the-art quality. The weight was just right – not too heavy, not too light. The knives are “insanely sharp,” said one user, adding that he wounded himself when he accidentally touched the blade. Another one said that the set was “perfect” and that they did not have to sharpen the knives.

However, one user complained that the knives rust easily, but they were fairly decent. Another one felt that the set was overrated, and that the sharpness was not really exceptional.
