Global Classic Knives
Crafted in Japan since 1983, Global Classic knives are known for their distinctive single-piece stainless steel construction. The blades are made from CROMOVA 18, a high-carbon stainless steel containing chromium, molybdenum, and vanadium, which provides good stain resistance and edge retention. Instead of a traditional tang, the hollow stainless steel handle is filled with sand to achieve an ideal weight and balance. This seamless design offers hygienic benefits, as there are no gaps where food can be trapped.
The blade edge on Global knives is ground to an acute angle, resulting in a notably sharp edge that lasts. The handles feature a signature dimpled pattern for a secure, slip-resistant grip. Favored by both professional chefs and home cooks, these lightweight knives are designed for balance and precision in a variety of kitchen tasks.

Global Classic 3-Piece Santoku Knife Set
A santoku, a mid-size cook’s knife and a paring knife give a compact kitchen a full range of blade lengths. The 7-inch hollow ground santoku does the main board work, with a flat edge for push cuts and flutes that keep slices of potato and cucumber from sticking.The 5-inch cook’s knife sits between the santoku and the parer. It handles a single onion, a few cloves of garlic or a chicken breast without bringing out the larger knife, and it slices small fruit on the board. The 3.5-inch paring knife covers peeling and coring.
Santoku Set or Asian Chef’s Set?Both sets share the same paring knife. This one suits cooks who want a pointed santoku as their main knife. The Global Classic 3-Piece Asian Chef’s Knife Set builds around a taller, wider cook’s knife instead. The santoku is also sold on its own as the Global Classic 7-inch Hollow Ground Santoku.
