Global's most popular knife, the Global G-2, 20.5cm chef's knife, is part of the longer bladed, hollow handled G-Series.
More than a classic gyuto, the G-2 knife suited primarily for cutting meat into pieces, yet it can also be used as a multi-purpose knife for cutting meat and vegetables.
The G-2 is a fantastic chef's knife, with a slightly rounded tip. Thanks to the ergonomic shape, the fingers almost automatically wrap themselves around the knife handle.
Global knives are perfectly balanced thanks to a sophisticated system. The handle with the characteristic little black dots is filled with sand and lies non-slip in the hand. As a result, the knives are neither top nor handle-heavy, lie optimally in the hand and can be guided safely.
Global knives have a long-lasting sharp blade made of special blade steel, the Cromova 18 stainless steel.
This is ice hardened to 58 Rockwell. After hardening, the knife blade is given a particularly sharp cut by hand by Japanese masters. The perfect and long-lasting sharpness is only possible by hand grinding.
The global blade steel Cromova 18 is hard, flexible and tough at the same time. The blade is protected from rust and, unlike most knife blades, is insensitive to acids and alkalis.
The Global knives from the G series are very convincing due to their low weight and perfect balance. This makes it comfortable and safe to hold and easy to guide. The seamless processing ensures optimal hygiene.
This knife is sharpened on both sides and is suitable for both right and left-handers.
