Knife Sets

An ideal set for the avid cook. Set includes the famous G-2 20cm chefs knife, the GS-3 13cm cooks knife, and the versatile GS-68 peeler.

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-11 is one of the more popular knives in the Global range and is frequently found in many of the sets where it fills the role of filleting, carving and 'general purpose' knife, hence its name.

The GS-38 is a beautiful little paring knife useful for lots of little tasks in the kitchen. It is the hollow handle alternative to the GSF-15 and often found in more recent sets.

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 GS-1 is the smallest stated cook's knife in the Global range with an 11cm blade and like all cook's knives is a multi purpose knife used for cutting, slicing and chopping. Use this knife for small kitchen work, cutting the leaves from strawberries or quartering oranges.

The GS-11 is one of the more popular knives in the Global range and is frequently found in many of the sets where it fills the role of filleting, carving and 'general purpose' knife, hence its name. The GS-11 has a medium sized blade at 11cm which is good for filleting small fish such as sea bass. The blade is also flexible which makes it suitable for this purpose.

The G-3 is Global’s classic carving knife, long and narrow to carve those perfect Sunday beef joints. There is only one G series carving knife and it is a specialist knife that is not well suited to other tasks, but that should not really matter, because the best cuts of meat demand the best equipment. Having a super sharp Global carving knife will ensure all your cuts of meat are thin and tender.

The GF-24 will hold your joints of meat securely in place while you carve your pieces of meat. The two tines on the end can be inserted into the meat to check that the meat is cooked as the juices run clear.

The G-57 is a chef's knife and like the standard Global chef's knives can perform most roles in kitchen. The G-57 is set apart from the other chef's knives by its deeper blade. So the knife is more predisposed towards chopping vegetables. If you just needed one knife for the kitchen, but that vast majority of what you are doing is cutting vegetables, we would recommend this blade. It is quite similar to a Santoku knife, in fact it's halfway between a classic chef's knife shape and a santoku.

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.

The biggest brother of the GSF-15 and GSF-22, the 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 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 Sakura 3-Piece Knife Set is an ideal way to start your Global knife collection. It contains 3 kitchen essentials that you cannot live without, the GU-01 20cm Chef’s Knife, the GUS-24 15cm Utility Knife and the GUF-30 9cm Paring Knife.

The Japanese concept of wind underscores the notions of liberty and motion, signifying the potential for growth and expansion, be it in the context of the atmosphere or the human intellect.

In the realm of cuisine, air is symbolized by poultry, and our Global Kaze 3 piece knife set draws inspiration from blades designed for poultry preparation. The knives within the Kaze collection feature fluting, which creates air pockets on the blades, effectively preventing food from adhering to them.

In Japanese culture, the element of fire symbolizes not only the essence of life but also embodies qualities like passion, longing, and vitality. Fire plays a pivotal role in the culinary world and is seen as a reflection of one's inner emotions.

Fire finds its culinary representation in the preparation of meat. Our knife set includes the GS-105, an Oriental cook's knife inspired by the classic Japanese Gyuto knife, along with the distinctive G-2 Chef's knife, both tailored for various culinary needs.

The Japanese concept of water symbolizes the qualities of fluidity, movement, and shapelessness within our environment. Water represents the capacity for adjustment and transformation. Additionally, plants fall under the category of 'sui/mizu' because they demonstrate adaptability to their surroundings.

In culinary terms, 'mizu' finds its representation in fish and seafood. Our Mizu knife set includes a G-4 knife, symbolizing the flowing nature of water, and the GS-11 flexible utility knife, which is ideal for precise filleting. The Mizu set is versatile and suitable for preparing a wide range of foods.

Earth, also known as 'Tsuchi,' symbolizes the firm, solid elements found in our world, with rock and stone being the most evident manifestations. It signifies constancy and possesses a strong resistance to alteration or motion.

In our Tsuchi knife sets, we emphasize their suitability for culinary use, particularly when handling vegetables. Each knife set features the versatile G-46 Santoku Knife, which excels not only as a multipurpose cooking tool but also as an excellent choice for cutting vegetables.

New for summer 2017 and available at a special price is a beautiful 3 piece set from Global Knives. A really good starter pack for any aspiring chef or for a Global knife enthusiast looking to add to their collection. The set features a large 18cm Santoku knife, good for slicing, dicing and mincing. A smaller medium sized Santoku knife and a little 8cm pairing knife. The knives in this set can cover most kitchen tasks.

This 3 piece boxed set is the latest box set to be released from Global as part of the Autumn Nakiri promotion. It is priced at £199.95 which is the same price as the 3 piece santoku set which is on the website but features a better array of products. It is an ideal starter set for someone who is new to cooking or perhaps even a chef that needs just a few knives to get started in the kitchen. It has a 20cm Chef's knife with a fluted edge, it is a great all rounder in the kitchen and is particularly good for cutting meat because of its size and its fluted edge which stops the meat from sticking to the blade. Then you have a 14cm Nakiri knife which is great for cutting small vegetables and leafs for salads such as rocket, lettuce etc, it is also available to purchase separately with the product code being GS-91 at a cost of £79.95. The set is then completed with a 8cm paring knife which is ideal for small tasks in the kitchen and would likely be your go to knife in the kitchen for cutting small fruit or toast and for everyday use.

The G-4 chef's knife is well-suited for a variety of kitchen tasks, including slicing, dicing, and chopping. Its performance is nearly identical to the classic G-2 chef's knife, with the main difference being its appearance. The G-4 features a kink in the blade, giving it an 'oriental' style, but this design does not affect its functionality or make it specifically for oriental cuisine. The upward curve of the blade allows for a rocking motion on the chopping board, similar to a mezzaluna, making it efficient for various cutting techniques. The design has gained such popularity that it inspired the creation of the Global NI series, the second new series of Global knives. Additionally, the G-4 model is available in a fluted variant, known as the G-66, and in a smaller size as the GS-58.

The GS-58 Oriental Cook's Knife features an 11cm blade, designed for precision. Ideal for various kitchen tasks, it excels at slicing, dicing, chopping, and other detailed work.

The GS-110AN is a beautiful 'Kiritsuke' shaped knife, useful for many tasks in the kitchen. Our small Kiritsuke features a slight curve for easier cutting, making it a versatile tool for chefs.
