# Most high priced knife sets
have been counterfeited and are the sort that appear on markets in briefcases.
Usually you can tell they are fake by the fact that the name and blade type is on each blade as with the original but they are a transfer that easily scratches off.

They're from a Dutch (company) cook shop, not a market, they have access to the stock and would lose their tenancy in a pretty exclusive area if they sold anything less than genuine.

who has owned restaurants for 20 years including 10 years on the Strand in London and he put me on to Sabatier knives about 15 years ago.
More than capable for the professional or home use and not ridiculously overpriced.

I'd be more inclined to suggest these for home use. Paying £500 for a set of knives is something not even most professionals will bother with.

Let's review the post. I was in the Edinburgh Gallery of Modern Art - through choice - and one of the exhibits was a bunch of bananas on a window sill slowly going bad. It transpires that they were an exhibit (not someone's lunch) and they they were "worth" £15k
