This knife is ideal for cutting small breads and sandwiches. Global Knives first made an appearance in 1985 after the Japanese designer Komin Yamadi designed an exciting new range of knives to a modern design. Using the finest materials, the revolutionary design of Global Knives have won numerous awards and have become firm favourites of both chefs and home enthusiasts the world over. Global Knives are made from Cromova 18 Stainless Steel and are Ice Hardened to Rockwell 56-58, giving a keen edge which is easily sharpened. You’ve invested in a quality knife and with proper care it will last a lifetime. The Global range has been designed to be without dirt traps. This makes cleaning your knife a much easier task. Wash your knife immediately after use in warm water with a mild detergent – do not put them in a dishwasher. After washing dry with a soft cloth and if required sharpen using a Minosharp or Global Sharpener. Store your clean knife in either a Global Knife Rack or protect the edge with a Global Magnetic Knife Guard. With a knife for every scenario, Global Knives, should be the first choice for everyday use.
