Product Description

SOLD OUT!!! Multi-purpose stainless steel flexible utility knife from Grunwerg with unique style for the modern chef. Hygienically safe smooth contours avoid dirt traps and seamless construction eliminates food traps. Global knives are made from the finest Cromova 18 stainless steel, ice tempered and hardened to Rockwell C56-58 degrees which holds a razor sharp edge longer and resists rust, stains and corrosion. To ensure a long lasting cutting edge, the blade of a Global knife contains a high level of carbon. It is necessary therefore to wash and dry immediately after use to avoid damage. The first Global knives were designed in 1985 by Komin Yamada, whose remit was to develop a range of knives which was truly new and revolutionary, harnessing the best materials available and the most modern design concepts. Today, the Global factory continues to develop the most tehcnically advanced performance chef's knives in the world.

No Substitute SuperTool
Not wanting to be 'conned' into buying one of these babies from a cookery class, it was a while before I took the plunge. MADNESS ! I should have bought at the time -what a superb knife. Light but with great balance, it is easily long enough to tackle say, a large Sea Bass and allows good feel of the blade as it flexes. It is the biz for fine dicing and produces paper-thin slices of ginger, garlic, chilli, veg.juliennes. Forget de-skinning tomatoes by blanching. Just eighth them and fillet. Childsplay. Keep it sharp and it rewards every time. I'd recommend the two-wheel Global ceramic sharpener, designed for the finer blade-angles, as the knife's flexible nature is really tricky to sharpen on a traditional ceramic block without lots of practice. I'm now using the Mino-guides to better effect these days.
