15cm Classic Utility Why choose this knife Our take on the classic European utility knife: thin, light, and with a pointed tip that makes it the knife for everything a chef s knife would overkill, from slicing and in-hand work to carving the last bits off a chicken. Dimensions Blade 14.6cm. Overall 27cm. Depth 3.2cm. Weight 86g. The Story The archetype goes back a long way, was first captured by Sabatier, and has been taken, used, developed, and inspired by pretty much every knife maker we know. Our version has been iterated carefully. It is the knife we particularly like for carving chicken,

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as Savernake Knives Limited, number 10826561. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Stated by the company: "our workshop is a converted 1854 sawmill in Wiltshire" Source.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
No majority shareholding traced outside the UK. Companies House.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
