The name 'UKON' has many positive connotations in Japanese legend. Our favourite use of the word lies in the expression 'Tachibana No Ukon' referring to the Mandarin Tree that was symbolically planted on the right-hand side of the Imperial Palace in Kyoto. It was said to balance the Cherry Blossom Tree on the left-hand side, known as the 'Sakura No Sakon'. Together they replaced the Samurai Guards who had until then protected the Emperor, but who were deemed no longer necessary during times of peace.

In true GLOBAL tradition, the knife is constructed from the best Stainless Steel material and the UKON series features thicker blades to enhance performance. UKON knives are subject to even more precise grinding and finishing work, making them 10 percent sharper out of the box. The knives are designed with an ambidextrous thumb rest that sits closer to the blade for added control and efficiency. The underside of the handle features GLOBAL's trademark indentations, making UKON knives extremely comfortable to hold.

The Ukon GUF-32 Utility Knife is a fully forged, robust knife that can tackle any kitchen task, whether its filleting fish, carving meat or slicing vegetables. Its thin, agile blade and compact size make it wonderfully nimble and easy to manoeuvre. When precision cuts are needed, the GUF-32 is the right tool for the job.

The GS-90 is a mini Santoku knife and is identical to the smaller brother of the G-80, it is the fluted version of the GS-35. Useful for cutting up small vegetables and fruit, a Santoku knife is used for slicing, dicing and mincing. They make good multipurpose knives for all round use.

This knife is the fluted version of the Global Ni GNM-06 vegetable knife. A really nice size for home chef's to cut up vegeatbles, the fluted blade will help to stop food sticking.

The GF-31 is essentially the fully forged version of the more popular G-21 Boning knife. Both knives have long thin blades which make the knife good for getting between the skin and the meat of the fish. The main difference between the two knives is the addition of a bolster. The bolster gives a lot of extra protection by preventing hands from slipping forward onto the blade. The main drawback is the fact that this blade is not as flexible. There is a trade off between the strength of the fully forged blade and have a flexible knife. This makes the knife better for more regular use, in professional kitchen settings, where repeated use of the boning knife is needed.

Introducing a brand-new utility knife that forms part of our Little Essentials range of kitchen knives with smaller handles for easy use. The GS-108SE Utility Knife has a serrated edge and medium sized blade at 12cm. This Serrated edge kitchen knife is the ideal tool for cutting smoothly through fruit and veg with a thicker skin such as tomatoes or citrus fruit such as grapefruit and oranges.

This is a specialist knife blade for butchering raw meat. The curved thin blade is designed to slice through joints in raw carcasses. The shape of the knife with its right angle curve in the blade is made to slash across flesh and so separate the meat from bones, ligaments and other parts that are not wanted. It is a specialist knife and does not work well for cutting or chopping vegetables and other regular kitchen work.

The butcher knife shape comes from a very old design of knives used for a huge variety of tasks such as cutting up food and skinning animals.

Global also produce a GF-27 fully forged butcher's knife. This knife has a bolster which provides a bit more protection when working with raw meat.

The G-13 is Global's first carving fork, made for Western style roasts. The sharp prongs will hold the joint in place whilst you carve, the rigid structure will allow you to control how you carve so that you have the perfect Sunday roast! The Global carving fork is made of the same materials as the regular G Series items and has the same handle, so it is comfortable and easy use.

An alternative to the G-13 is the G-24 which is a fully forged carving fork. It does the same job, but is flat. It is not as easy to use but fits in the drawer easily as the G-13 usually cannot be stored in one of Global's blocks.

Consider pairing with the G-3 carving knife for the perfect matching set or explore our other meat slicing knife options. 

The GS-8 is a specialist peeling knife and has a curved blade to work around carrots, potatoes and other vegetables and fruits. The knife has the same blade as the GSF-17 but the GS-8 has the standard hollow handle of the Global GS range. We recommend this peeler for chefs with bigger hands who find the GSF range too small.

The GS-35 is a mini Santoku knife, useful for cutting up small vegetables and fruit. Like its big brother the G-46, the knife is suitable for the three ways of the Santoku, slicing, dicing and mincing. The knife has a relatively flat blade for cutting and makes a good alternative to the better known GS-5. The GS-35 is also available in a fluted version as the GS-37.

The little brother to the G-1, featuring the classic GS Global handle, the GS-2 has the same blade, but shorter at 13cm. The round end to the blade allows you to slice into boney meat like chicken and duck without the tip of the blade catching in the bone. The GS-2 is basically the GS-3 with a rounded end and therefore can also be used as a general purpose cook's knife for cutting and chopping.
