A Japanese-style square-tip knife that is great for chopping meat, root vegetables and big prep jobs. Popular alternative to the Santos. The Gs series is a classic Collection of small to medium-sized knives for general and special preparation.\u003c\/span\u003e    \u003c\/p\u003e          \u003ch3\u003e    \u003cspan\u003eAmazon.com\u003c\/span\u003e   \u003c\/h3\u003e        \u003cp\u003e    \u003cspan\u003eHigh tech from tip to handle, Global knives from Japan created a sensation when they burst onto the world's culinary stage as an alternative to traditional European-style cutlery. Blades are made of hard molybdenum\/vanadium stainless steel and \"face-ground\" with a long taper rather than a short bevel so edges remain sharp longer than even the best high-carbon stainless-steel knives. Edges also are ground at a more acute angle than traditional European-style knives and arrive from the factory razor-sharp. Although Global also makes a \"heavyweight\" line for cooks who prefer hefty knives, its original knives--of which this 5-1\/2-inch knife for precisely slicing and chopping vegetables is an example--have thinner blades and are lighter than traditional European-style knives. Global also dispensed with bolsters on its original knives to reduce weight. Balance is achieved by injecting a precise amount of sand for a particular blade style into a hollow handle. To ensure balance is continuous, the sand flows inside the handle as a blade is maneuvered. A finger notch between blade and handle provides safety. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Stainless-steel handles are Global's most striking feature. They're molded to fit the hand and dimpled to resist slipping. Smaller around than many European-style handles, they're easy for small-handed cooks to grasp and seamless for sanitation. Global recommends using a ceramic sharpener or a diamond steel instead of a metal sharpening steel for its knives, supplemented by a synthetic whetstone, a ceramic whetstone, or a Shinkansen sharpener. Global also makes a Sharpening Guide Rail so blades can be honed on a whetstone at the proper angle. Global knives should be hand washed to protect edges. They carry a lifetime warranty against defects and breakage. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003e--Fred Brack\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Global","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67589597561083,"sku":"B00005OL3V","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0731\/4066\/6619\/files\/21vDu4gYbrL._SX800.jpg?v=1790558275","url":"https:\/\/trendyyboxer.com\/products\/5-5-inch-vegetable-knife-japanese-nakiri-style-kitchen-knife","provider":"trendyyboxer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
