GLOBAL knives are known for their distinctive Japanese design, exceptional sharpness and precise balance. Crafted from high-quality stainless steel, each GLOBAL knife combines carefully engineered blade construction with the brand's signature seamless handle design for precision, control and performance in the kitchen.

CROMOVA 18 Stainless Steel Construction

GLOBAL knife blades are made from CROMOVA 18 stainless steel, ice tempered and hardened to Rockwell C56–58.

This specially developed stainless steel helps the blade maintain a razor-sharp edge while providing resistance to rust, stains and corrosion.

GLOBAL knives are also recognised for their smooth contours and seamless, all-stainless-steel construction. The seamless design helps eliminate areas where food and dirt can become trapped, making the knives hygienic and easy to maintain.

The Signature GLOBAL Knife Edge

Sharpness is one of the defining characteristics of a GLOBAL knife.

GLOBAL knife edges are ground steeply to a point at an acute angle. Unlike the bevelled edge traditionally found on many Western or European knives, GLOBAL's straight edge creates an exceptionally sharp cutting surface designed to retain its sharpness for longer.

The Molybdenum and Vanadium in CROMOVA 18 stainless steel also contribute to the performance and durability of the blade.

Precision Balance

GLOBAL knives feature a distinctive hollow stainless steel handle, which is filled with a carefully measured amount of sand to create the right balance between the blade and handle.

This method allows GLOBAL to precisely control the balance of each knife without relying on the traditional full tang and bolster commonly found on Western-style knives.

The result is the distinctive balance and control associated with GLOBAL's Japanese knife design.
