Global knives stand out for their innovative features, particularly their distinctive edge and exceptional balance. The edge is the most crucial aspect of any knife, and Global's edge is undoubtedly its signature.
Global knives are sharpened or ground to a steep, acute angle, endowing them with exceptional sharpness that resists rust, stains, and corrosion. The straight, prominent edge of a Global knife is dramatically sharper and maintains its edge for longer. The edge is so large and prominent that it is easily visible to the naked eye, extending a quarter of an inch or more up from the knife's tip.
From its humble beginnings, Global has evolved into one of the world's most successful professional kitchen knife brands. These knives are still meticulously crafted by hand in Yoshikin's factory in Niigata, Japan, adhering to the highest manufacturing standards.
Global's acclaim and numerous awards over the years are a testament to the company's excellence. Their knife-making heritage traces back to the high art of sword-making developed by Japanese swordsmiths centuries ago to create strong, sharp blades for the Samurai warrior caste. Reflecting this legacy, each Global knife is carefully weighted to ensure perfect balance in the hand.
The Global Knife Set includes a versatile selection of knives: a 3.5-inch paring knife, a 5-inch chef's prep knife, a 6-inch serrated utility knife, a 7-inch hollow-edge Asian chef's knife, an 8-inch chef's knife, an 8.5-inch bread knife, and kitchen shears. All these knives are housed in a 7-slot ash wood knife block with a dark walnut finish.
The blades of Global knives are made from Cromova 18, a high-carbon stainless steel alloy containing chromium, molybdenum, and vanadium, developed exclusively for Global. These blades are ice-tempered to a Rockwell Hardness of 58 degrees, enabling them to retain their razor-sharp convex edge for longer. The stainless steel handles feature Global's signature dimple pattern, providing a comfortable, slip-resistant grip, and are filled with sand to achieve the desired weight and balance.
These Japanese-made Global knives are backed by a limited lifetime warranty and should be hand-washed with gentle dish soap and dried after use.
