Global knives represent the best of Japanese craftsmanship , combined with modern technology . The Cromova 18 stainless steel ensures a long-lasting sharp edge, while the unique design of the knives provides a perfect balance between blade and handle. This makes them not only comfortable to use, but also extremely precise. The design without seams or rivets also makes the knives more hygienic than traditional models, as there are no places where bacteria can accumulate.
The Global range consists of different series, each with their own characteristics. The Global Classic Knives are instantly recognizable by their wavy handle, which provides extra grip. Popular models in this series include the chef's knife, santoku and paring knife.
In addition, Global offers the Ni-series , a renewed line with a smoother handle and subtle notches for better control. These knives are even lighter in weight, which makes them particularly manoeuvrable. The Ni chef's knife is one of the bestsellers in this series.
To enjoy your Global knives for a long time, good maintenance is essential. Always wash the knives by hand and dry them immediately, even though the Cromova 18 steel is dishwasher safe. The handle can be damaged by exposure to heat.
To sharpen your Global knives, it is best to use a ceramic sharpening rod or a fine sharpening stone. Keep an angle of about 15 to 20 degrees for the best result. Store the knives in a wooden knife block or on a magnetic strip to prevent damage.
A basic set often consists of a 3-piece set with a chef's knife, santoku and office knife. For those who want more variety, there are also 5-piece sets, including a bread knife and utility knife. Professionals often opt for a complete 8-piece set with knife block and sharpening rod.
Use a fine grit whetstone (1000-4000 grit) and maintain a 15-20 degree angle when sharpening. Regular maintenance will ensure your knives stay sharp at all times.
Although the steel is dishwasher safe, we recommend hand washing the knives to keep the handle in perfect condition.
