Global G5838 2-piece knife set – Chef’s knife – Paring knife

Global G-5838 2-piece knife set – Chef’s knife & paring knife

Two versatile Global knives for everyday use

The Global G-5838 Knife Set combines two handy kitchen knives in one set: the 16 cm Global G-58 Chef’s Knife and the Global GS-38 steak and paring knife. A compact yet exceptionally versatile combination for virtually all your everyday cutting tasks.

Use the G-58 chef’s knife for cutting vegetables, fruit, meat, fish and fresh herbs. For smaller ingredients, peeling and precise cutting tasks, reach for the compact GS-38 paring knife. Both knives are made from the patented CROMOVA 18 stainless steel and feature the characteristic Global handle with dimples for extra grip.

Which knives are included in the Global G-5838 set?

• 1 x Global G-58 Chef’s Knife – 16 cm
• 1 x Global GS-38 steak and paring knife

By combining a medium-sized chef’s knife with a compact utility knife, you get two knives that complement each other perfectly.

Global G-58 Chef’s Knife – 16 cm

A good chef’s knife is one of the most frequently used knives in virtually every kitchen. The Global G-58 has a 16 cm blade, making it more compact than a classic chef’s knife measuring 20 cm or more. This makes it particularly manoeuvrable and pleasant for everyday home use.

Use it for, amongst other things:

• Chopping vegetables
• Preparing fruit
• Portioning meat
• Cutting fish
• Finely chopping onions
• Chopping fresh herbs
• All sorts of everyday prep tasks

Its compact size offers great control, without compromising on the versatility of a proper chef’s knife.

Global GS-38 Steak and Paring Knife

The second knife in this set is the Global GS-38. This compact and versatile knife is ideal for smaller cutting and peeling tasks where a chef’s knife is just a little too big.

Use it, for example, for:

• Peeling and cutting fruit
• Preparing small vegetables
• Peeling potatoes
• Trimming ingredients
• Small, precise cutting tasks
• Various tasks requiring extra precision

As a result, the GS-38 essentially functions as a compact chef’s knife for more delicate tasks.

CROMOVA 18 stainless steel

• Global manufactures its knives from the patented CROMOVA 18 stainless steel.
• This specific type of steel was developed for Global and has a fine grain structure, allowing the steel to be ground to a particularly sharp edge.
• CROMOVA 18 has a hardness of approximately 58 HRC (Rockwell). This allows the steel to combine a sharp edge with practical maintainability.

Handle with distinctive dimples

• The black dimples in the handle are perhaps the most recognisable feature of Global knives.
• Not only do they give the knives their distinctive look, but they also provide extra grip whilst cutting.
• This is particularly useful when you’re cooking for long periods or when your hands are slightly damp.

Seamless stainless steel design

• Global knives feature a striking , all-stainless-steel design.
• The blade and handle fit together seamlessly. This means there are no traditional seams between the blade and a separate wooden or plastic handle.
• This gives the knives their minimalist Japanese look and also makes them easy to clean by hand.

An ideal basic set with two knives

• With the G-5838, you’re choosing two knives that together can handle a wide range of everyday tasks. 
• The 16 cm G-58 chef’s knife is ideal for larger cutting tasks.
• The GS-38 utility knife handles the smaller and more precise tasks.
• This makes the set an excellent choice if you want to put together a practical basic collection with just two high-quality knives.

Also suitable as a first Global knife set

Would you like to discover Global knives? Then a two-piece set is an accessible way to get started. You’ll immediately receive two distinctly different knives and can experience for yourself which size you use most often whilst cooking. Later on, you can expand your collection with, for example, a larger chef’s knife, a bread knife, a santoku or another specialised Global knife.

How do you look after Global knives?

High-quality kitchen knives are best not kept in the dishwasher. During a dishwasher cycle, knives can collide with other kitchen utensils, whilst dishwasher detergents and high temperatures are also not ideal for maintaining a sharp edge.

You should therefore preferably wash your Global knives by hand:

1. Clean the knife after use with warm water and a mild washing-up liquid.
2. Use a soft sponge or cloth.
3. Dry the knife immediately and thoroughly.
4. Store it safely in a knife block, on a suitable magnetic strip or with a knife guard.

This will help to preserve both the sharpness and the beautiful stainless steel finish for longer.

Why choose the Global G-5838 Knife Set?

The Global G-5838 Knife Set is a compact yet exceptionally versatile combination for everyday cooking. With the 16 cm G-58 chef’s knife, you have a manoeuvrable all-rounder for vegetables, fruit, meat and fish. The GS-38 steak and paring knife complements this perfectly for smaller cutting tasks, peeling and jobs requiring extra precision.

Both knives are made from CROMOVA 18 stainless steel, hardened to 58 HRC, and feature the distinctive Global design with a balanced handle and dimples for extra grip. A practical 2-piece Global knife set for those who prefer to invest in a pair of versatile, high-quality knives that can be used every day.
