The G-16 24cm is a typical cook’s knife, suitable for any use in the kitchen. The large size of this knife means they are more suited for professional chefs in working kitchens. For home use we would recommend anything from the G-2 20cm Cook’s knife and downwards. Aside from the blade length, these knives have bigger more cylindrical handles and a more pronounced bolster to offer added protection.

The G-16 is made from CROMOVA 18 stainless steel, specially developed by GLOBAL as it holds a razor-sharp edge and resists rust, stains and corrosion. Ice tempered and hardened to Rockwell C56-58, each knife is carefully weighted by filling the handles with sand to achieve the optimum weight and perfect balance. Other unique features include its smooth contours and seamless construction which eliminates food and dirt traps offering the ultimate in safety and hygiene. The acute 15-degree angle cutting edge provides unsurpassed performance and superior edge retention.

Made in Japan

Global knives have been crafted in Japan for over 30 years. They are designed to be comfortable and easy to handle, able to meet the toughest requirements of the kitchen and appeal to professional and amateur chefs alike. Like Samurai swords before them, each knife is carefully weighted to ensure perfect balance in the hand. Known for their signature knife edge, the straight edge results in a dramatically sharper knife which stays sharper longer in contrast to Western or European knives that use a beveled edge.
