Global G-series Japanese Chef's Vegetable Knife

The face-ground edge is a signature Global feature that creates a thinner, more acute angle than traditional blades. This design allows for smoother, cleaner cuts through vegetables and helps the blade retain its sharpness for a longer period.

While specifically designed for vegetables, the 180mm length and sharp edge make it quite versatile. It performs well for general slicing and dicing tasks, though it is not intended for heavy-duty work like cutting through bone or frozen foods.

The handle features a signature dimpled texture designed to prevent slipping, even when wet. To maintain this, simply wash the knife by hand with mild soap and dry it thoroughly after each use to keep the grip clean and effective.

Because of its unique edge geometry, it is best to use a whetstone or a Global-specific sharpener to maintain the blade's precision. Avoid using standard pull-through sharpeners, as they may damage the specific angle of the face-ground edge.

The ergonomic, molded handle is designed to be lightweight and balanced, fitting most hand sizes comfortably. Its seamless construction allows for a variety of grip styles, making it easy to maneuver regardless of hand size.

No, this knife should always be hand-washed. Dishwashers can dull the blade edge prematurely and the harsh detergents may damage the high-quality Molybdenum/Vanadium stainless steel finish.
