GLOBAL Japanese knives are the favourite of chefs in the world's most prestigious hotels and restaurants.

The first GLOBAL knife was designed in 1985 by Komin Yamada, who gave the knife a new and revolutionary design.

The main features of GLOBAL knives are:

Lightness: GLOBAL was the first company in the world to create a knife with a hollow steel handle. This feature reduces the weight of the knife by 30%.

Ease of handling: Thanks to their light weight and the anatomical shape of the handle, GLOBAL knives are suitable for continuous and prolonged use, reducing user fatigue to a minimum.

Blade strength: GLOBAL knives are made of the best steels and the most modern manufacturing techniques. In the blades there is a high percentage of Molybdenum/Vanadium thanks to which the hardness of the steel reaches 56/58 Rockwell, thus increasing the life of the edge.

Robustness: As GLOBAL knives are made completely of steel (handle and blade) they are practically indestructible.

The perfect companion for preparing packed lunches or brunches: Thanks to its thin serrated blade, this sandwich knife not only cuts sandwiches cleanly, without tearing them, but is also suitable for vegetables (such as compact tomatoes), fruit or dry sausages. This makes it an integral part of making sandwiches and brunch tools, perhaps alongside our cheese knife.

Forged series
- 14 cm blade

The Handles: made of synthetic material and joined with a triple riveting ensure a perfect seal, excellent stability and guarantee dishwasher safe.
The Blades: are obtained using the best steels and combining the most qualified elements (chromium 15% - carbon 0.5% - molybdenum - vanadium).
The realization of a WUSTHOF forged knife requires the passage of about 40 processing cycles.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance prolongs the life of the knife, makes work easier and safer and reduces the consumption of the wire. Some advices:

- Pay attention that the knives placed in the dishwasher bump other objects; the blades could be damaged.

- Knives guaranteed for dishwashers that are not immediately washed in the machine should be rinsed under the water tap to remove the remains of highly corrosive foods (fats, vinegar, fruit juices).

- Make sure if the knives no longer cut perfectly, have them rectified or sharpened by professionals in the sector.

The WUSTHOF knives sold by us are personally checked and further sharpened, in order to guarantee you the certainty of an excellent purchase.
