Sabatier Trumpet / Ancienne Maison 4.75" Steak Knife Stainless France 1950s-60s

Vintage 4.75” steak knife made for Ekco’s Ancienne Maison series by Sabatier Trumpet in Thiers France in the 1950s or 60s.

These were drop forged to form the blade shape and bolster and then hand forged to draw out the tang and thin the blade, these were hand ground and given a fine finish and represent some of the finer work done in their day. The name Ekco is associated with cheaper kitchen equipment but these are definitly not that and fly under the radar sometimes. They were produced by Sabatier Trumpet in Thiers France as their trademark guarantees.

This one has a POM handle in excellent condition. Blade has been sharpened only several times, it’s original fine hand ground surface barely shows use aside from a few stray scratches. The edge has been touched up but it was a dull factory edge when we found it.

4.75” blade 8.5” overall
