The GLOBAL GS-110AN special edition Kiritsuke Knife, a standout Japanese kitchen knife that functions as a small chef's or cook's knife for serious home cooks and professional chefs.

Traditionally, Kiritsuke knives are much larger with a straight, single edged blade. Due to their challenging nature, they are usually reserved for the most skilled Japanese chefs as a status symbol. Our smaller Kiritsuke pays homage to this traditional knife but with a slightly curved, double-edge blade and angled tip that aid in general cutting tasks. 

•           Multipurpose chef’s knife/slicing knife  
•       Special edition 40^th anniversary blade 
•       Slightly curved 15cm blade with angled tip
•       Double-edged blade
• Ultra sharp 15° cutting edge

GLOBAL Z marks the start of a revolution. The first ever all steel kitchen knife to combine stainless steel with a Diamond-Like Carbon Coating. With a ground-breaking material upgrade and striking new finish, the best-selling GLOBAL G-2 Chef’s Knife just got better.

• Limited Edition. Only 300 blades available
• 20% More durable
• Matte black finish
• Friction free cutting
• Enhanced corrosion resistance

What is a Diamond-Like Carbon coating?

DLC, or Diamond-Like Carbon, is a surface treatment that imparts diamond-like qualities to the blade. This results in significantly increased hardness and durability, enhanced rust resistance and a smoother blade for reduced friction during slicing.

Let the Global Z inspire you to elevate your cooking and experience confidence and ease with every cut.

Global Knives, crafted in Japan to impeccable standards, feature Cromova 18 stainless-steel blades known for their razor-sharpness, hollow weighted handles, and a 15-degree convex cutting edge. Renowned for their distinctive design, these knives have maintained their popularity over the years. To mark their 40th anniversary, Global has introduced a selection of limited-edition knives and knife block sets.

Global's limited edition 40th Anniversary 7 Piece Knife Block features the iconic 'ship shape' knife block set, with 6 of the most popular knives from Global.

The Global 40th Anniversary 7 Piece Knife Block Set includes:

G-4 | 18cm Oriental Cook's Knife - The G-4 chef's knife is versatile for most kitchen tasks such as slicing, dicing, and chopping. Its performance closely matches that of the classic G-2 chef's knife, with the primary difference being aesthetic—the slight kink in the blade. This design element gives the knife an 'oriental' appearance but does not affect its functionality. Contrary to its appearance, the G-4 is not tailored specifically for oriental cuisine or techniques; rather, it offers a different shape compared to traditional chef's knives. Its gently curved blade facilitates a rocking motion while cutting, similar to a mezzaluna on a chopping board.

G-58 | 11cm Cook's Knife - The G-58 knife, measuring 11 cm, is a slightly smaller version of the same knife, featuring the large G series handle. The shorter blade offers better control and may feel less intimidating, especially for those with smaller hands. Regardless of size, all these knives perform the same tasks in the kitchen, making the choice largely a matter of personal preference.

GS-110AN | 15cm Kiritsuke Knife - The newest addition to the Global family, is the GS-110, a small 15cm Kiritsuke Knife. A Kiritsuke Knife, traditionally much larger and over 24cm in length is used by Japanese head chefs as a multipurpose knife for slicing. Kiritsuke knives typically have very straight blades, like the Japanese Usuba vegetable knives, but with the longer blade of a Yanagiba knife. Such knives are hard to use and are usually only wielded by the most skilled Japanese chefs as a symbol of status. Our small Kiritsuke pays homage to the true knife, with a slightly curved blade to aid general cutting and function as a small chef's/cook's knife.

GS-38 | 9cm Paring Knife - The GS-38 is a beautifully designed paring knife perfect for various small kitchen tasks. It serves as a hollow handle counterpart to the GSF-15 and is commonly included in newer knife sets. Its ergonomic hollow handle ensures comfortable handling, enhancing the overall user experience.

GS-55 | 12cm Fluted Oriental Santoku Knife - The GS-55 Oriental Santoku knife features flutes that prevent food from sticking to the blade while cutting. It's ideal for slicing, dicing, and mincing, making it perfect for small vegetables and fruits. This versatile knife is an excellent all-purpose tool for various kitchen tasks.

GS-61 | 16cm Bagel/Bread Knife - The GS-61 is suitable for most types of bread and is a more affordable alternative to the full G-9. Additionally, it serves well as a utility knife for vegetables with tough skins and soft interiors, making it excellent for slicing large tomatoes.

Global Classic Range 35th Anniversary Special Edition Cromova18 Stainless Steel Hollow Handles Rockwell C56-58 Acute 15 Degree Cutting Edge Handwash Only Designed by Komin Yamada Made in Japan

The G-2/AN is the best-selling Japanese kitchen knife ever made! It can slice, dice, chop, and really do anything that you need.

The G-9/AN is Global's classically shaped bread knife. It is a specialist knife, really for use with bread only.

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 GS-21/8 blades themselves are not sharp, but are flexible making these knives great for getting under any food that is frying like eggs or burgers, or for controlling runny food whilst cooking. You can also use these knives for spreading icing.

The GS-11/AN fills the role of filleting, carving and 'general purpose' knife.

The GSF-15/AN is a little 8cm blade that is good for all those small kitchen tasks.

The G-74 Sharpening 'Steel' allows you to sharpen your knife using the western method of sharpening. Although we recommend using a whetstone or a pull through sharpener.

The GS-20 is one of three different fish bone tweezers produced by Global. The two prongs perfectly touch each other to grip the smallest bones to make sure you get the perfect fillet of fish.

The GS-76 Global Peeler P Shape is the other version of the GS-94 which is a more popular version of the Peeler because of its shape that allows you to cut from the front rather than the P shape which is side angle.

The set comes with a deluxe leather Global branded leather knife roll and bib apron.

Michel Roux Jr asked Global Knives to create a wedding knife for his daughter's wedding. Global Knives said the minimum order was a dozen knives so 2 were given to the Roux family and there were another 10 remaining. These rare knives are now available to purchase and there will not be any further stock for them in the future. Which makes it a great collectors item or perhaps it could be used by a wedding events organiser. If you know someone that is a great fan of Global knives and you want to make their wedding day special then this wedding knife would really stand out.
