Global GS-1 Office Knife 11cm

The advantages of Global knives

Global knives are made from patented and ultra-hard Cromova 18 steel. No other knife brand is allowed to use this steel. The handle is the most striking part of Global knives. The small dimples provide more than average grip during cutting, even if you have wet hands. In addition, the handle is hollow and filled with sand, so the knife fits perfectly in your hand. The sand is carefully measured so that your knife is perfectly balanced in your hand.

More about Cromova 18 steel

The fine grain structure of this unique steel ensures that the knives can be sharpened very sharply. Cromova 18 steel has a hardness of 58 HRC. The hardness is therefore slightly less than many other Japanese knives. The great advantage is that you can easily sharpen your knives yourself. Global knives are convex ground. This means that the blade's edge is not ground in a V-shape, but in a U-shape. This makes the edge much stronger. You can also sharpen these convex ground knives yourself. Use a sharpening stone for this!

How to care for your Global knives?

We advise against putting your Global knives in the dishwasher. In the dishwasher, your knife can come into contact with other (flying) kitchen utensils. You don't want scratches or dents on your blade, do you? Fortunately, a Global knife is easy to clean by hand. The handle and the blade seamlessly merge, so dirt cannot get stuck anywhere.
