This knife excels in preparing a variety of ingredients, including meat, fish, and vegetables. Its versatility and precision make it a valuable addition to any culinary arsenal.

This stainless steel ensures that your knife remains in optimal condition, even in challenging kitchen environments.

The History of Global
The first GLOBAL knives were designed in 1985 by Komin Yamada whose task was to develop a range of knives which was truly new and revolutionary, harnessing the best materials available and the most modern design concepts. Global knives appeal to the professional and amateur chief alike, are comfortable and easy to handle, and meet the most demanding requirements.
The Finest Materials
GLOBAL knives are made from the finest stainless steel material. The blades utilize CROMOVA 18 stainless steel, ice tempered and hardened to Rockwell C56°-58°, which holds a razor sharp edge longer than any other steel and resists rust, stains and corrosion. Like the Samurai swords before them, each knife is carefully weighted to ensure perfect balance in the hand.
Still Hand-Crafted
From a very modest beginning GLOBAL has developed into one of the success stories of the 1990’s. Still crafted by hand in Yoshikin’s factory in Niigata with the most exacting standards, they are sold in more than 89 countries around the world attracting ever more attention and acclaim. Our design and production team continue to look for ways of expanding and developing our product line.
The Global Acclaim
Formal awards alone can barely act as a testimony to the thousands of delighted GLOBAL customers throughout the world. GLOBAL knives are favoured today by most high-ranking chefs. Our products are used in the most prestigious hotels and restaurants and are featured regularly on television cooking programs in the hands of the most celebrated chefs.
