Yanagi Sashimi Knife, 10 Inches, for Global G-11R

The curved, ergonomic handle of the slightly longer cutlery provides a comfortable grip, featuring 7 signature black dots that represent the 7 Samurai codes of honor and moral principles. The patented Cordova 18 core (Chromium, Molybdenum, Vanadium, and Carbon) with a beautiful hammered finish creates air pockets, which help release food while cutting, giving the blade non-stick properties.

Legendary industrial designer Komin Yamada brings a new era of innovation to Global cutlery with the Sai line, unifying function and design. These distinctive Japanese knives combine revolutionary ergonomic handles with triple-layered steel blades that maintain their exceptionally sharp edges. Sai is the first new cutlery line produced by Global in more than 25 years, blending the Japanese company's tradition of craftsmanship with modern technological advancements.

The knives feature a core of patented, ultra-hard Cromova 18 Sanso stainless-steel alloy, sandwiched between two outer layers of more flexible 18/8 steel, providing added strength and resistance to rust. The professional-quality blades are ice-hardened and tempered to increase hardness, resist corrosion, and maintain long-lasting sharpness. Each blade is hand-hammered to create hollow air pockets that reduce drag, allowing the blade to glide through food without sticking. The 12.5-degree blade edge is mirror-polished by hand for exceptionally long-lasting sharpness.

The perfectly balanced handle has an ergonomic thumb rest, ensuring a smooth, efficient cutting motion and a steady, comfortable grip. Made in Japan, these knives offer a razor-sharp edge that stays sharper for longer, a stainless steel seamless construction, and sure-grip handles.
