Description

This Global GS-8 Curved Peeling Knife has a 3″ blade. The curved blade makes it excellent for peeling fruits and vegetables. Global kitchen and chef knives are designed by designer Komin Yamada. They are crafted by hand in Niigata, Japan. Global knives were first designed in 1985.

The edge of any knife is very important. Furthermore, the Global edge is truly its innovative feature. For example, sharpening occurs on both sides of the edge of a Global knife similar to a Western knife. In the same fashion, Western knives are ground with a bevel, Global knives are ground to an acute, steep angle.

As a matter of fact, Oriental knives and swords are the inspiration for this longer edge. The straight edge results in a dramatically sharper knife which stays sharper longer. Balance is important too. Perfect balance provides optimal control. The hollow handle with sand inside helps achieve that perfect balance.

In addition, the blades use molybdenum/vanadium stainless steel. The degree of hardness on this knife is a Rockwell 56-58. Of course, this means it can hold a taper-ground, razor sharp edge. Moreover, Global uses CROMOVA 18 steel in these knives. Making the steel hard enough means the knives will retain their sharpness.

In the same way, the high chromium content make the knives resistance to rust and staining. The slim Global design means a better mobility. Additionally it is comfortable for the smaller hand. By welding the handle to the blade knife, it is totally seamless tool. The texturing on the handle provides a sure grip.
