Our 3 Piece Carving Set with professional carving knives and a carving fork made in Japan.

• G-3 21cm Craving Knife
• GF-24 Straight Carving Fork
• G-57 16cm Santoku Chef's Knife

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.

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.

This starter knife set will cover most standard kitchen knife tasks but is limited with carving large roasts. For the ultimate set of Japanese knives, we recommend exploring our chef carving knives for a specialised tool for large scale meat preparation to complete your precision knife set.
