Knife Block Sets

A Complete Global Kitchen, from Peeler to Bread Knife The Global Classic 10-Piece Takashi Knife Block Set is for cooks who want a dedicated Global blade for every common task, including boning and fine peeling, rather than asking a few knives to do everything. It adds kitchen shears and a ceramic rod, and keeps the full collection in one bamboo block.
Why It Works Eight task-specific knives: Three small blades for peeling, paring and utility work, a vegetable knife, a flexible boning knife, a chef’s knife and a bread knife cover the range from in-hand trimming to whole loaves. Ceramic rod included: A ceramic rod suits Global’s hard, thin edges, realigning and lightly refining them between whetstone sharpenings. Seamless steel construction: With no rivets, seams or wooden scales, there is nothing to loosen, crack or trap food. Sand-weighted hollow handles: Sand inside each handle sets the balance, so even the longer blades stay light and controllable. No bolster: The edge runs to the heel, so the whole blade can be sharpened.
In the Kitchen The chef’s knife and vegetable knife share the board work, one for rock-chopping and proteins, the other for straight push cuts through vegetables. The flexible boning knife follows the bones of chicken thighs, pork loin and ribs. The three small knives handle peeling, coring, shallots and garnish work, and the bread knife takes on crusted loaves. The shears cover packaging, herbs and poultry.
