The advantages of Global knives

Global knives are made from patented and rock-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 with wet hands. In addition, the handle is hollow and filled with sand, so that 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 acutely. Cromova 18-steel has a hardness of 58 HRC. The hardness is therefore slightly less than many other Japanese knives, with the great advantage that you can easily resharpen 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, which 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 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 blade seamlessly merge, so dirt cannot get stuck anywhere.
