Global G-79627 Hiro Knife Block

The hollow stainless steel handles are weighted with sand to ensure each knife is perfectly balanced. This specific calibration provides better control and reduces hand fatigue during repetitive cutting tasks.

No, Global knives should be hand-washed with mild detergent and dried immediately. Dishwashers can damage the sharp edges and potentially compromise the finish of the stainless steel.

The signature dimple pattern is designed to provide a secure, slip-resistant grip. It ensures the knife remains stable in your hand even when you are working with wet or oily ingredients.

The 5.5” Nakiri is a specialized vegetable knife with a straight edge and squared-off tip, making it ideal for precise chopping and push-cutting produce. The 8” Chef knife is a versatile, all-purpose tool designed for a wider range of proteins and general prep work.

The block is designed to store the knives securely, but it is important to insert and remove them carefully to avoid scraping the sharp edges against the interior slots. Always ensure the blades are completely dry before placing them back in the block to prevent moisture buildup.

Global knives are made from high-quality stainless steel, which is highly resistant to rust and corrosion. However, they are not completely stain-proof; keeping them clean and dry after every use is the best way to maintain their appearance and performance.
