Global G-45458 - 25th Anniversary 3 Piece Knife Set

Product Review

Global's 3 Piece 25th Anniversary Set. This modern knife set comes in 25th Anniversary logo box with Global lapel pin. Set includes: Global's popular (G-4) oriental chef's knife 7-Inch plus two brand new Global shapes. The Global (GS-54) santoku 4-1/2-Inch is terrific for small board work such as slicing shallots and chives and the Global (GS-58) oriental utility knife 4-1/2-Inch is great for peeling tough skinned ingredients like sweet potatoes. Loved by professional chefs around the world, Global knives are an excellent choice for the serious home cook. The thin and razor sharp Global blade allows the cook to cleanly slice through foods, preserving the integrity of the ingredient and maximizing its flavor. The majority of Global knives are ground to a straight point rather than the western style of beveling the edge. To balance their knives Global uses a hollow handle that is filled with just the right amount of sand to create the correct balance. The handle has its own unique darkened dimples for a non-slip grip. Because the knives are very light weight they reduce hand fatigue. Global knives have a smooth contour and seamless, all stainless construction that eliminates food and dirt traps. Global knifes are forged in Japan from CROMOVA 18 stainless steel, a blend of 18-Percent chromium for good stain resistance plus molybdenum and vanadium which gives excellent edge retention.

I bought these knives based on others experience with the global brand cutting knives. I was not disappointed. This is a great value and these really are great knives. I'm a female so these knives fit perfectly in my hand (not sure how it would be for males). They are lightweight and makes cutting quick and fun. These knives meet form and function. Beautiful and fuctional. I hope to have them for years to come. Highly recommend.

I absolutely LOVE these knives! The handles feel so nice in your hand, and the blades are super sharp. They are my 'go to' knives for everything. I am so happy I decided to purchase them, and the price is great considering the product you get. You will not be disappointed.

I have used Cutco for the last 7 years and although they are solid knives, they would get dull rather quickly on me. Even though the sharpening is free if you send them to the manufacturer's, it could cost up to $50 for the shipping. The free sharpening they would do at your house is not the same and I just didn't want to deal with the sales pitch. I researched for a month and kept coming back to the Globals. When I received the 25th Anniversary set right after Thanksgiving, I could not believe how sharp they were..scary sharp! I also bought a John Boos cutting board to help keep the knives at their optimum. These knives are amazing, lightwight and easy to handle, love them!!
