Global 8 Piece Knife Set with Bamboo Block

Global knives contain two innovative features, their edge and the way they are balanced. A very powerful detail of any knife is its edge, and the Global edge is in reality its signature. Global knives are sharpened or ground steeply to a point, and to an acute angle at the same time as resisting rust, stains and corrosion. The straight edge results in a dramatically sharper knife which stays sharper longer. The edge on a Global knife is so large and prominent that it is easily seen with the naked eye and extends a quarter of an inch or more up from the tip of the knife. From its modest inception, Global has developed into one of the successful brands of professional kitchen knives on the earth. Still crafted by hand in Yoshikin’s factory in Niigata, Japan, Global knives are manufactured to extremely high and exacting standards. Global has attracted much acclaim over time and received a large number of awards. A thousand years ago, Japanese sword-smiths developed the high art of sword making to provide strong, sharp blades for the Samurai, the feared warrior caste. Like the Samurai swords before them, each knife is carefully weighted to verify perfect balance in the hand. Global knives have been hand crafted in Japan the use of the same traditions and developed the use of the best raw materials available.
