A thousand years ago, Japanese sword smiths perfected the art of crafting strong, sharp blades for the Samurai, the esteemed warrior class. This rich tradition lives on through Global Knives, which have been hand-crafted in Japan for over 30 years, using the finest raw materials to create exceptional kitchen tools.
The Global GF-36 Vegetable Knife, with its 20cm blade, exemplifies this legacy. Designed for efficient vegetable preparation, it is fully forged from a single piece of stainless steel, ensuring superior strength and balance. The long, flat blade makes full contact with the cutting board, delivering clean, precise cuts, while the slightly curved front aids in slicing and dicing. With a razor-sharp 15-degree edge and a well-balanced heft, the GF-36 is ideal for both professional chefs and home cooks.
Global Knives, first designed in 1985 by visionary Komin Yamada, were created to revolutionise kitchen knives with innovative materials and cutting-edge techniques. Each knife, like the Samurai swords before them, is carefully weighted for perfect balance. Still crafted by hand in Yoshikin’s factory in Niigata, Japan, the GF-36 reflects a commitment to durability, performance, and timeless craftsmanship, making it a trusted choice in kitchens worldwide.
