Global Classic Santoku Paring Set

The 7-inch Santoku is your primary workhorse, ideal for chopping, slicing, and dicing vegetables and proteins. The 3-inch paring knife is designed for intricate tasks like peeling, trimming, and detailed prep work that requires more precision.

No, these knives are not dishwasher safe. To maintain the integrity of the razor-sharp edge and the finish of the stainless steel, you should always hand wash them with mild detergent and dry them immediately.

CROMOVA 18 is a proprietary blend developed by Global that balances high carbon content for edge retention with enough chromium to provide excellent rust and stain resistance. It allows the blades to be ground to a thinner, sharper edge than many traditional Western-style knives.

The handles feature Global’s signature dimple pattern, which is specifically engineered to provide a secure, slip-resistant grip even when your hands are damp. The ergonomic shape is designed to fit comfortably in your palm for better control during repetitive cutting tasks.

Because these knives feature a convex edge, it is best to use a whetstone or a sharpening system designed for Japanese-style blades. Avoid using pull-through electric sharpeners, as they can damage the specific geometry of the edge.
