The GF-100 is a Global chopping knife with an extra thick 4mm blade. This makes the knives somewhat heavier and thicker than traditional Global knives. The shape of the knife is specifically intended for chopping vegetables.
The GF-100 has a long flat blade designed to come into full contact with the cutting board with each stroke and create clean cuts of each vegetable. The deep blade will make easy work of heavy vegetables such as sweet potato, squashes and beetroot. With a fully forged blade, the GF-100 is more suited to the professional kitchen and chefs more accommodated to the weight and feel of a German knife.
We recommend the GF-100 for professional chefs who do a lot of chopping in the kitchen.
As a fully forged knife, the GF-100 is made from one piece of steel from the knife point to the end of the handle and contains a full tang. It feels substantially heavier and has a lot more presence than that of other knives, which is great if you think Global knives are a bit too light.
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.
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-47 is essentially a Western style version of the Yanagi Sashimi Slicer and works the same way. The G-47 knife has the typical 15 degree bevel on each side of the blade as per the standard G series. It can be used for a number of kitchen tasks. It makes a great carving knife and is perfect for slicing big pieces of your favorite cut of meat. It also makes a good fish filleting knife or for use making sashimi.
The GS-4 is Global's small version of the Deba Bocho knife, a small version of the G-7 Deba, a Japanese style kitchen knife used to cut mostly fish but also meat. This knife has the traditional Japanese one sided grind so is not suitable for Western style preparation. It can be used for cutting, filleting and slicing smaller fish. A perfect small utility knife for Japanese chefs who use a larger Sashimi or Deba knife and need something for lighter work.
Like the Yanagi Sashimi knife the Tako sashimi knife is a specialist Japanese blade for precision slicing raw fish. It is discernible from the regular Yanagi Knife by the flat end to the blade. Specifically the Tako part stands for octopus in English. The knife is generally used in the Tokyo area of Japan as a octopus slicer, but it can be used as a filleting knife for medium sized fish.
Like other traditional Japanese knife blades, this knife has a bevel on only one side of the blade, to help achieve even slices.
A Yanagi is a specialist Japanese knife for slicing pieces of fish for sushi and sashimi. The long blade is to allow the chef to make long broad strokes to make sure that the cut is made in one go. Global's Yanagi Sashimi slicers are ground in typical Japanese fashion with a single bevel on the face of the knife. The single bevel is to allow professional chefs more control to control the thickness of the sashimi slices and make sure the cut is perfect for presentation.
Global make two versions of the Yanagi Sashimi, the G-11 has a 25cm blade and the G-14 has a 30cm blade.
