Knives for BBQ & Grilling

Global knives are supposed to be refined, delicate instruments for preparing food to exact specifications...not the G-12 Meat Cleaver. A heavy-duty chopper with a broad, rectangular blade, thicker steel and weighted construction to effortlessly break down large cuts of meat and separate joints. 

• Long 16cm blade & thicker steel
• Ultra sharp 15° cutting edge
• Ergonomic hollow handle for comfort & balance
• Hygienic one-piece construction
• Traditional hole in the blade to hang on hook above a butcher's table

A durable knife for portioning meat, chopping dense vegetables and preparing lamb chops, spare ribs and more.

The GF-27 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 GF-27 has a bolster, which gives it an edge over the bolster-less G-28. This is particularly useful when the slime from raw meat can make the knife handle slipped, just having the bolster there gives you a little more drip, control and confidence when using the knife.

The butcher knife shape comes from a very old design. In the wild these knives were used for a huge variety of tasks, for cutting up food, skinning animals and self defense.

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.

Global's large handle slicer knives come in two sizes, the G-1 at 21cm and this model the G-6 at 18cm, there is also a small handle equivalent, the GS-2. It is listed as a slicing knife, or slicer knife because of its rounded blunt end. It is very similar to the G-2 in that sense but is designed for cutting meat into pieces, the idea behind the blunt end is that the tip does not nick or catch as you are slicing through meat and you can smoothly roll it into the cut. These slicing blades work particularly well on meat that is close to the bone, such as chicken or duck. Nevertheless, the size and shape of the knife lend it to being another all-rounder and this Global knife can be used as a multipurpose knife for cutting up vegetables.

The GF-40 is listed as a boning knife, but the profile of the blade makes it suitable for a variety of kitchen tasks because of the small hilt and elongated upturn in the blade. Being fully forged it is strong enough for most kitchen tasks and can be equally used as a universal knife. This knife can be used as a small slicer, a boning knife or for cutting up small bits of meat, fruit or vegetables. It has a nice big comfortable handle with a bolster for extra protection. The protection of the bolster makes the knife suitable for cutting raw meat as it gives you a bit more grip on the handle.

The G-29 is another fairly specialist knife in the G series line. The knife is suited for work with medium sized fish and is a bit of a cross over between a cook's knife and a chopper. It is also perfectly suited for cutting up chicken, turkey or other poultry that may be cooked whole.

The deep blade is designed to help the knife cut through bones to remove fish heads, tails and fins as the knife can be swung down onto a chopping board. Useful for preparing fish if you like to buy your fish whole, this knife will also create deep slicers to serve up.

If you needed just one knife for your kitchen go for a quality chefs knife and if you are going for Global buy the G-2. The G-2 is the best-selling Japanese kitchen knife ever made! It can slice, dice, chop, and really do anything that you need. A multi-purpose all round blade that is included in virtually every knife set produced. It has won dozens of awards over the years testifying to the popularity of the blade. Global (represented by the G-2) has won the Which? Best Knife category 3 times in a row.

The GS-5 is the little brother of the G-5 vegetable chopper, with the same shape of blade in a smaller proportion. These knives take their inspiration from Japanese Usaba (Vegetable Knives), the relatively flat parts of the blade are designed to chop through fruit and vegetables and come into full contact with the chopping board and give a clean cut. The front of the blades are more curved like a chef's knife, to allow the knife to be rocked gently forward after each cut and encourage good technique.

The GSF-15 is the most popular petty knife in the Global range and is very often found in set combinations. Its little 8cm blade is good for all those small kitchen tasks, peeling, cutting fruit and small delicate kitchen work. 

If you needed just one knife for your kitchen go for a quality chefs knife and if you are going for Global buy the 20cm G-2. The G-2 is the best-selling Japanese kitchen knife ever made! It can slice, dice, chop, and really do anything that you need. A multi-purpose all round blade that is included in virtually every knife set produced. It has won dozens of awards over the years testifying to the popularity of the blade. Global (represented by the G-2) has won the Which? Best Knife category 3 times in a row.

The 8cm GSF-15 is the most popular petty knife in the Global range and is very often found in set combinations. Its little 8cm blade is good for all those small kitchen tasks, peeling, cutting fruit and small delicate kitchen work. 

The biggest brother of the GSF-15 and GSF-22, the 15cm GSF-24 is the largest forged utility knife in the Global range. It is a bit of an odd knife, it is really a bit big to sit in the GSF category, but shares the same profile and flat handles of the other GSF knives.

The iconic Global G-2 is a Japanese chef’s knife designed for everyday kitchen tasks such as slicing, chopping, and dicing. Featuring a thin blade, ultra sharp 15° edge angle, and lightweight stainless steel construction making it easier to handle than most Western chef's knives. Loved by professional chefs around the world, the award-winning G-2 is the best-selling Japanese kitchen knife ever made!

If you needed just one knife for your kitchen go for a quality chefs knife and if you are going for Global buy the G-2. The G-2 is the best-selling Japanese kitchen knife ever made! It can slice, dice, chop, and really do anything that you need. A multi-purpose all round blade that is included in virtually every knife set produced. It has won dozens of awards over the years testifying to the popularity of the blade. Global (represented by the G-2) has won the Which? Best Knife category 3 times in a row.

Further it has won the Restaurant Magazines Readers Choice Award 8 years in a row. Sharpest Knife by A La Carte Magazine, Design Plus in Frankfurt, Tried and Tested by Good Housekeeping Magazine, Best Kitchen Gadget by GQ, and the list is endless. After 25 years of its existence, it still stands out as the benchmark in the Global range to which all other Global knives and to which all other upmarket kitchen knife brands are compared. By owning a Global chefs knife you are joining the ranks of thousands of delighted home cooks and professional chefs.

The G-2 is available in many alternative sizes, bigger and small. The G-55 is 18cm and the G-58 is 16cm. They are the same knives in slightly smaller sizes and come with the large G series handle, meaning that the blade is a little shorter. This gives you more control or might feel less overwhelming if you are a smaller person, all these knives will do the same task in the kitchen, the size is just a matter of preference.

The G-16 and G-17 are the two biggest brothers of the Global cook's/chef's line at 24cm and 27cm respectively. These are typical chef's knives, good for any use in the kitchen. The size of these knives means that they are more suited for professional chefs in working kitchens. For home use we would recommend anything from the G-2 and downwards. Aside from the blade length, these knives have bigger more cylindrical handles and a more pronounced bolster to offer added protection.

The G-21 is a classically shaped boning knife and is considered to be the standard boning knife in the Global series, it is certainly the best selling Boning knife. The knife has a long narrow blade with is tapered to a very fine point. This allows the user to work round the bones in joints of beef, lamp or pork and cut out a sizable piece of meat.

The blade is also flexible, which is great for getting under the skin and filleting fish. There are quite a few boning and filleting knives in the Global range, but the G-21 has a bolster, this is useful where working with raw meat or fish can make the knife slippy, it helps to prevent any unfortunate accidents. There is also a fully forged version of the knife, the GF-31.

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.

The G-3 is GLOBAL’s Classic carving knife, the ultimate kitchen knife for slicing and serving roasted meats with precision and ease. A specialist knife with a razor-sharp blade developed for clean, even cuts of turkey, roast beef, ham and other meats. A true kitchen essential because the best cuts of meat demand the best equipment.

• Professional carving knife for precise meat slicing
• Long & narrow 21cm blade
• Ultra sharp 15° cutting edge
• Ergonomic hollow handle for comfort & balance
• Hygienic one-piece construction

We recommend pairing the G-3 meat cutting knife with one of GLOBAL's carving forks, either the G-13 or the GF-24 to make a carving set. The G-82 is the fluted version of this knife.

The G-8 is more or less the G-9 bread knife without the serrations, but it makes a great carving knife, as it has a long and narrow blade. This carving knife makes excellent work of joints with no bones in. It will allow you to cut thin even slices of meat, so works best with hams, joints of beef, salmon and any de-boned lamb. It is a worthy alternative to the G-3, although we would suggest if you are looking for the standard carving knife to go for the G-3.

Global's large handle slicer knives come in two sizes, the G-1 at 21cm and the G-6 at 18cm, there is also a small handle equivalent, the GS-2. It is listed as a slicing knife, or slicer knife because of its rounded blunt end.

The G-102 Global Cheese and Herb Chopper is a delightful little tool which is the smaller version of the G-12 meat cleaver.

It also comes with a traditional hole which is normally used in butcher's knives to hang on a hook which it is quite handy in the kitchen for if you need it on a regular basis.

Because of its popularity, there are quite a few variations of this knife. The equally popular GLOBAL GS-5 is the small version, the G-81 is the fluted version and there is a fully forged GF-36 for professional chefs as well.

The GSF-23 is one of a few steak knives made by Global and is great for use in tucking into big juicy fatty Rib eyes and Sirloins. It will saw effortlessly through fatty pieces of meat to give you nice clean cuts. In fact this knife has more in common with the other GSF utility knives than other steak knives as the main feature of the blade is the subtle serration in the blade. This makes the knife ideal for steaks but also works well as a utility knife for softer fruits and vegetables. It would make a great tomato knife, so is a multi function blade.
