GLOBAL G 58 CHEFS KNIFE

GLOBAL G-58 CHEF'S KNIFE

Global G-58 Chef's Knife, 16 cm (6 1/4") blade, made of CROMOVA Stainless Steel (Chrome Vanadium 18%) hardness 56-58 HRC. This is the traditional onion or chef's knife, used for most kitchen tasks, such as cutting meat or vegetables. Its blade is sharpened on both sides and is suitable for both right- and left-handed users.

Global knives caused a sensation when they burst onto the world culinary scene as an alternative to traditional European-style cutlery.

The blades are made of an alloy of stainless steel, molybdenum, and vanadium. The edge has a tapered edge that allows the knife to stay sharp. This makes them the sharpest high-carbon stainless steel knives available.

The edges are also ground at a sharper angle than traditional European-style knives and arrive factory-sharp. Although Global also makes a "heavyweight" line for chefs who prefer stronger knives, its original knives have thinner blades and are lighter than traditional European-style knives.

Global also dispenses with yokes on its original knives to reduce weight. Balance is achieved by injecting a precise amount of sand into a hollow handle blade. To ensure continuous balance, the sand flows into the handle as you use the knife.

There is a finger notch between the blade and the handle for safe handling.
