Global GN-006 Vegetable/Cleaver with Dimples 18cm

This Global GN-006 vegetable and cleaver from the Ni-series has a blade length of 18cm. It is equipped with multiple dimples on the blade, which helps prevent food from sticking to it. It is ideal for slicing and chopping vegetables, herbs, and fruits.

The Ni-series from Global

Global Ni kitchen knives are part of the second series in Global's latest generation (where Ni stands for 'two'). These Ni knives combine everything that has made Global a leading brand: perfect balance, striking designs, and of course, an extremely sharp edge.

The advantages of Global knives

Global knives are made from patented and extremely 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 when cutting, even with wet hands. In addition, the handle is hollow and filled with sand, so the knife fits perfectly in your hand. The sand is very 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 big advantage of this is that you can easily resharpen your knives yourself. Global knives have a convex grind. 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 resharpen these convex-ground knives yourself. Use a sharpening stone for this!

How to maintain your Global knives

We advise you not to put 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 blade blend seamlessly, so dirt can't get stuck anywhere.
