Limited Edition to mark 40 years of Global

Global has been renowned for its distinctive Japanese kitchen knives for decades. To mark the brand’s 40th anniversary, a special Limited Edition was released. This Oriental Chef’s Knife forms part of this anniversary collection and stands out thanks to its unique engraving. Due to its limited global production run, it is not only a practical kitchen knife but also a special piece for Global enthusiasts and collectors.

Oriental chef’s knife with an 18 cm blade

A good chef’s knife is one of the most essential knives in the kitchen. With its 18 cm blade, this Global knife offers a fine balance of control and cutting power. The size is suitable for both larger and smaller ingredients and feels particularly comfortable for many home cooks.

Use the knife for, amongst other things:

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

This makes it a real all-rounder in the kitchen.

A more robust version for everyday chopping

• This oriental version has a sturdier build than a classic Global chef’s knife.
• The wider, robust blade gives the knife a solid feel and makes it suitable for a wide range of everyday chopping tasks.
• At the same time, weighing 170 grams, it remains comfortable to handle.

Refined precision tip

• A striking feature of this oriental chef’s knife is its refined tip.
• This allows you not only to handle larger ingredients, but also to work with precision when a recipe calls for finer chopping.
• The knife thus combines the versatility of a larger chef’s knife with extra control at the tip of the blade.

CROMOVA 18 stainless steel

• The knife is crafted from Global’s patented CROMOVA 18 stainless steel.
• This steel grade is used exclusively for Global and contributes to the combination of sharpness, durability and corrosion resistance for which the knives are renowned.
• The blade is hardened to 58 Rockwell, creating a good balance between sharpness and practical everyday use.

Japanese sharpness from heel to tip

• Global knives are renowned for their sharp edge.
• This Oriental Chef’s Knife is also designed to cut efficiently across the entire usable length of the blade.
• This allows you to prepare ingredients with precision and requires relatively little force to achieve a clean cut.

Iconic Global design in stainless steel

• The appearance of Global knives is instantly recognisable.
• The sleek , all-stainless-steel design gives them a modern look that is very different from traditional kitchen knives with wooden or plastic handles.
• In this Limited Edition, that distinctive design is complemented by a special anniversary engraving to mark 40 years of Global.

Dimples for extra grip

• The characteristic black dimples in the handle are also present.
• These give the knife its recognisable Global look whilst also providing extra grip whilst cutting.
• This combines the minimalist design with practical ease of use.

Caring for your Global chef’s knife

• To keep your Global knife looking good and staying sharp for as long as possible, it is best to wash it by hand.
• Clean the knife shortly after use and dry it thoroughly. Then store it safely in a knife block, on a suitable magnetic strip or with a knife guard.
• To maintain the sharpness, you can use a sharpening system suitable for Japanese knives, such as a Global MinoSharp knife sharpener.

Why choose the Global Oriental Chef’s Knife 18 cm Limited Edition?

With an 18 cm blade, it is also a practical size for everyday use: large enough for meat, fish and vegetables, yet manoeuvrable for finer work. The special 40th-anniversary engraving and limited global edition make this version particularly special. This makes it both a versatile chef’s knife for everyday use and an exclusive addition to an existing Global knife collection.
