Knives

The Evolution of the Icon: The GLOBAL Z Series Step into the next evolution of precision cutlery with the GLOBAL Z series—an exclusive, limited-edition innovation designed for serious chefs and discerning home cooks alike. Building on GLOBAL’s decades-long legacy of performance and craftsmanship, the GLOBAL Z redefines what a stainless-steel knife can achieve in a professional kitchen environment. At the core of this masterpiece is GLOBAL’s signature CROMOVA 18 stainless steel, a material celebrated for its balance of edge retention and ease of sharpening. However, the 'Z' series pushes the envelope by integrating an advanced Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating. This cutting-edge surface treatment imparts exceptional strength, giving the blade physical properties similar to a diamond. This isn't just an aesthetic choice; it is a fundamental upgrade to the physics of your cut. The result is a knife that excels in every category. The enhanced surface hardness provides outstanding resilience against the demanding pace of high-volume prep work. The low-friction DLC finish allows the blade to glide through proteins and dense vegetables with almost zero drag, while the increased corrosion resistance protects your investment against rust, stains, and acidity. This is more than a tool; it is a limited-run engineering marvel that represents the absolute peak of high-performance kitchen cutlery. Learn More

A Masterpiece Forty Years in the Making: The Global G-78/AB Limited Edition Experience the surgical precision of CROMOVA 18 steel and the signature ergonomics that revolutionized the modern professional kitchen. For four decades, Global has been the vanguard of Japanese cutlery, and the 40th Anniversary G-78/AB Chef's Knife is the culmination of that legacy. This isn't just a commemorative piece; it is a high-performance tool engineered for the rigors of professional service. The 7-inch blade length is widely considered the 'sweet spot' for home cooks and chefs alike, offering the nimble control of a paring knife with the heft required for heavy-duty vegetable prep. The core of this anniversary edition is Global's proprietary CROMOVA 18 stainless steel. By blending high levels of Chromium with Molybdenum and Vanadium, Global has achieved a steel that is hard enough to maintain a razor-like edge but resilient enough to resist chipping and staining. Each blade is ice-tempered and hardened to Rockwell C56-C58, ensuring it outlasts conventional Western steel in edge retention. What sets the G-78/AB apart is its unique fluted (Granton) edge. These carefully machined divots create small air pockets between the steel and the food, drastically reducing surface tension. Whether you are slicing through starchy potatoes or delicate proteins, the blade glides through without sticking, allowing for faster, more uniform cuts. The seamless, all-stainless construction ensures total hygiene, while the iconic dimpled handle provides a slip-resistant grip even in high-moisture environments. This 40th-anniversary edition is a testament to the fact that when it comes to balance, durability, and sharpness, Global remains the industry standard. Learn More

Guaranteed to speed up your vegetable prep when compared to a traditional nakiri design. Learn More

Global G-47 Classic 9.8" (250mm) Sujihiki Slicer: The Art of the Perfect Slice Experience the pinnacle of Japanese precision slicing with the Global G-47 Classic Sujihiki. This 9.8-inch (250mm) slicer is expertly designed for creating flawless, paper-thin cuts of boneless fish for sashimi and sushi, as well as elegant, even slices of roasts, poultry, and other delicate proteins. The G-47 Sujihiki is a testament to Global's commitment to exceptional quality, innovative design, and unparalleled performance. Engineered for Flawless Slicing The heart of the G-47 Sujihiki is its long, narrow, and remarkably sharp blade. This specific design allows for: Effortless, Long Strokes: The generous 250mm length enables you to make long, uninterrupted cuts in a single motion. This minimizes cellular damage to the food, preserving its natural juices, texture, and flavor – crucial for delicate items like raw fish or perfectly cooked roasts. Precision & Control: The slim profile of the Sujihiki blade reduces friction, allowing it to glide through food with minimal resistance, ensuring clean, precise slices every time. Versatility: While a master at slicing boneless fish, this knife also excels at carving boneless roasted meats (beef, pork, lamb), poultry, terrines, and even large fruits or vegetables where long, clean cuts are desired. Signature Global Quality & Design CROMOVA 18 Stainless Steel: Crafted from Global's proprietary CROMOVA 18 high-carbon stainless steel, the blade is ice-tempered and hardened to Rockwell C56-58. This ensures exceptional edge retention, stain resistance, and the ability to achieve and maintain an incredibly sharp, acute edge. Razor-Sharp Double-Bevel Edge: The blade is ground steeply to a point on both sides (typically 15-17 degrees per side), resulting in a razor-sharp edge that performs with precision. This double-bevel design makes it suitable for both right and left-handed users. It also enables this knife to be easily re-sharpened with draw sharpeners unlike many other sashimi slicers that can only be sharpened by hand on stones. Iconic Hollow Handle: The unique, seamless hollow stainless steel handle is filled with sand to achieve the perfect weight and balance. Its ergonomic, dimpled design provides a secure, comfortable, and slip-resistant grip, even with wet or greasy hands, reducing fatigue during extended use.
