The G Series of Global knives is a classic collection of large longer bladed knives with weighted hollow handles, used for general food preparation. All knives are made in two parts with the blade and the handle being welded together. The blade itself is made of Cromova18, Global ’s special blend of Molybdenum Vanadium steel, which makes the knife hard compared to European blades and able to retain a decent edge for a long time. Global ’s special feature though is that the knives are ground down to a very acute angle (15 Degrees) down the face of each side of the blade. Rather than having a beveled edge, this is how Global knives are renowned for being so sharp and for staying sharp for such a long time. Global were one of the first Japanese brands into the UK market and have built up a cult following and the brand is well recognized.

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.
