ABOUT US

For over 30 years, we have been proud to import these fine, handcrafted Four Star Elephant Sabatier knives from Thiers-Issard in France to the USA.

Originally as Great French Knives, we offer the most complete line of Sabatier Elephant knives available in the USA.  We carry a full line of knives with red and green stamina handles, as well as the classic black nylon.  We also carry the popular olive wood handles, blue jeans micarta and white micarta.  All of these knives come in both stainless steel and carbon steel handles. 

Thiers-Issard is also renown around the world for their razors and pocket knives. We carry a special selection of pocket knives and wine openers and can special order razors and any other product made at Thiers-Issard.

We ship to many countries including:  Canada, Australia and New Zealand. For shipping rates to these countries please see our Shipping page. 

Thiers-Issard Sabatier Four Star Elephant knives were the choice of Louise Hasson's Bon Vivant School of Cooking for over 30 years. Louise showcased these quality French knives in her classes and developed her signature Bon Vivant knife, a 6 inch utility knife with an extra wide blade which is sold exclusively at Sabatier Knife Shop. 

 

Louise's knowledge and passion has been passed on to the next generation and her son Adam Hasson continues importing these fine knives as Sabatier Knife Shop.  On our blog you can see a video of Adam's visit to the Thiers-Issard factory in France, watch master craftspeople honing these authentic Sabatier knives and see some of the vast offerings in their showroom. 

A certified Living Heritage Company, manufactures all their knives in France with French materials, except for certain woods that come from around the world. Their passion and devotion to their craft is evident in every knife and 90% of the process is still done by hand.
