About Global:
 
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.
 
From very modest beginnings GLOBAL has developed into one of the success stories of the 1990's. Still crafted by hand in Yoshikin's factory in Niigata to the most exacting standards, they are sold in more than 65 countries around the world.
 
Knife Description:
 
The Global Classic G Series are basic model kitchen knives assuring sharp, light, and clean use. GLOBAL knives are made from the finest stainless steel material.
 
The G-80 is the fluted version of the standard Global Santoku Knife the G-46. A full sized Santoku, this knife can literally do anything, but is particularly well suited for chopping. Fluted blades work exceptionally well with Santoku knives as they are typically used for chopping vegetables and the fluting prevents starchy food such as potatoes from sticking to the blade as easily. Santoku knives have become incredibly popular recently, and a great alternative to a cook’s/ chef’s knife.
 
The G-80 is made from CROMOVA 18 Stainless Steel, specially developed by GLOBAL as it holds a razor-sharp edge and resists rust, stains and corrosion. Ice tempered and hardened to Rockwell C56-58, each knife is carefully weighted by filling the handles with sand to achieve the optimum weight and perfect balance.
 
Other unique features include its smooth contours and seamless construction which eliminates food and dirt traps offering the ultimate in safety and hygiene. The acute 15-degree angle cutting edge provides unsurpassed performance and superior edge retention.
 
The handle is one of the most distinctive features of Global knives. Sort of their trademark design. The handle is metal and the knife is one solid piece. To improve the grip handle is textured with multiple circular recessions which show up as black dots in the handle.
