Global 6 Piece Ukon Knife Block Set
Global Ukon, the perfect synthesis of Japan's knife-making heritage, modern design and superior performance. Details such as a dual-surface handle, ambidextrous thumb rest and a thicker blade with a noticeably sharper edge are indications of Global Ukon's technical innovation. Global knives contain two innovative features, their edge and the way they are balanced. The most important detail of any knife is its edge, and the Global edge is truly its signature. Global knives are sharpened or ground steeply to a point, and to an acute angle while resisting rust, stains and corrosion. The straight edge results in a dramatically sharper knife which stays sharper longer. The edge on a Global knife is so large and prominent that it is easily seen with the naked eye and extends a quarter of an inch or more up from the tip of the knife. From its modest inception, Global has developed into one of the most successful brands of professional kitchen knives in the world. Still crafted by hand in Yoshikin's factory in Niigata, Japan, Global knives are manufactured to extremely high and exacting standards. Global has attracted much acclaim over the years and received numerous awards. A thousand years ago, Japanese sword-smiths developed the high art of sword making to provide strong, sharp blades for the Samurai, the feared warrior caste. Like the Samurai swords before them, each knife is carefully weighted to ensure perfect balance in the hand. Global knives have been hand crafted in Japan using the same traditions and developed using the best raw materials available. Set Includes: 3.5" Paring Knife, 6" Serrated Utility Knife, 7" Hollow Edge Santoku Knife, 8" Chef's Knife, 9" Bread Knife & 5 Slot Knife Block.

The knives are exceptional. Sleek, precise and extremely sharp. We purchased these knives through Crate & Barrel because we like the stand they offered. The knives are available elsewhere with different stands. Unfortunately, the stand is already rusting. It's unfortunate, but does not change how great the knives work.
I bought this knives set because of design and the light weight which I checked from the store. As I was enjoying the knives set in my kitchen, they started to get rust within a month. First I thought maybe only this set so I called the CB customer service and got replacement with new set again because I really like the design, weight, and the sharpness. I was wrong. The replacement set also started to get rust within a month. I am returning this knives set for good.
We are really happy with this knife set! It is lightweight but durable and cuts really clean. We always hand wash and dry immediately since they are stainless steel, but haven’t needed to do anything further. The knife block itself wasn’t very practical (kind of big and awkward shaped for our counter) but we easily ordered another generic one that fits these knives.
Purchased this set, not that I needed a new set of knives, but have been wanted them for a long time. The styling/design of the set is beautiful. The 30% edge on the knives is incredible to work with, very precise cuts, and the balance of the knives are amazing. I know it is a lot to spend on a set of knives, but I will have them for a LONG time coming.
