Global knives are renowned for their innovative features - their distinctive edge and exceptional balance. At the heart of any knife's performance lies its edge, and Global's edge is truly their signature. These knives are sharpened to a steep, acute angle, yet they resist rust, stains, and corrosion. This straight-edged design results in a remarkably sharp blade that retains its edge for longer. The size and prominence of the Global knife edge are such that it is easily visible to the naked eye, extending a quarter of an inch or more up from the tip.
From humble beginnings, Global has evolved into one of the world's most successful professional kitchen knife brands. Crafted by hand in the Yoshikin factory in Niigata, Japan, Global knives are manufactured to the highest and most exacting standards. This craftsmanship has earned Global widespread acclaim and numerous awards over the years.
The origins of Global's design can be traced back to the high art of sword-making developed by Japanese sword-smiths a thousand years ago to equip the feared Samurai warrior caste with strong, sharp blades. Like those legendary swords, each Global knife is carefully weighted to ensure perfect balance in the hand.
Global knives are handcrafted in Japan using the same time-honored traditions, and they are made with the finest raw materials available. The Cromova 18 high-carbon stainless steel blades are designed exclusively for Global, featuring a unique composition of chromium, molybdenum, and vanadium. These blades are ice-tempered to a Rockwell Hardness of 58°, allowing them to maintain their razor-sharp, convex edge for longer.
The stainless steel handles are designed with a signature dimple pattern, providing a comfortable, slip-resistant grip. The handles are filled with sand to achieve the desired weight and deliver the perfect balance. Each knife is crafted with a 15-degree double-bevel edge, ensuring superior sharpness while maintaining edge stability.
The Global Knife Set includes a 3.5" Paring Knife, 5" Chef's Prep Knife, 6" Serrated Utility Knife, 7" Hollow Edge Asian Chef's Knife, 8" Chef's Knife, 8.5" Bread Knife, Global Kitchen Shears, and a 7-Slot Bamboo Knife Block. This set is made in Japan and backed by a limited lifetime warranty. To maintain the knives, hand-wash with gentle dish soap and dry thoroughly.
