GLOBAL GS-11 15cm FLEXIBLE UTILITY KNIFE - with a medium sized, flexible blade, this popular general purpose knife from Global is perfect for filleting and carving. GF and GSF Global kitchen knives are heavier. This European style blade is preferred by a lot of chefs because of this additional weight, and if you want a high-quality kitchen blade that will last for years to come, then the GSF Series is a good choice. Look after your knives well and they can last a lifetime. It’s important to clean and sharpen them properly, as well as store them safely and securely. From classic chef’s knives to bread knives, a good quality knife set will cover all bases, so you shouldn’t find yourself having to make do without a key bit of kit at the last minute.

Start with getting your hands on a guide before sharpening your Global knife. Using any random sharpening process will not be as effective. Next, pay attention to the sharpening angle and always make sure it is accurate. An incorrect angle could damage your blade. The combination of these high-quality knives makes them ideal for the all-rounded chef, allowing them to perform a wide range of food preparation tasks. From carving big pieces of meat to handling small, extra precision tasks, you will find a blade for every occasion. You will even have a blade for cutting vegetables, sawing through a tough crust, or peeling an apple. Never place your Global Knives in your dishwasher because this can damage the blade’s sharp edges. It can also be very harmful, exposing theCromova18 high carbon stainless steel that the blade is made from to extreme heat and the powerful detergents that dishwashers use. Storage And Maintenance The best practice is to wash knives in hot, soapy water and then dry them with a tea towel, rather than leaving them to air. We do always test dishwasher-safe claims, regardless. When comparing Global andWusthofCook’s knives, we found theWusthofknife to weigh 226 grams, which is significantly more than the 156 grams of the Global Cook’s knife.

How we tested

Made to the exacting standards of Japenese craftsmen, Global's professional chefs knives have remained some of the most popular and successfule kitchen knives in the industry for 30 years.

First, we performed a printer paper test, cutting through the paper starting at the knife's heel and moving toward the tip in a controlled motion. We looked at how cleanly the knife sliced through the paper, noting how much effort was required to puncture the paper. GLOBAL GS-38 9cm PARING KNIFE - useful for a variety of kitchen tasks, this nifty little knife is perfect for intricate cutting, peeling, mincing and dicing. The unique CROMOVA 18 material offers an extremely sharp blade and also ensures that the sharpness is maintained much longer than with other knives. Despite this, they will need regular sharpening if you want to continue to enjoy the high quality and ease cutting that is offered by this innovative and popular brand. Choose between ceramic and waterstones.It's fairly priced for the performance, and we'd absolutely recommend it for a starter Japanese knife set. Advanced cooks and chefs might look for a higher-end option, but for most home cooks, this is a serviceable and smart buy. The knife is made in Japan and utilises the company’s exclusiveCromova18 high carbon stainless steel blade, a blend ofChromium, Molybdenum, and Vanadium. In addition, the blade is sharpened to an acute 15-degree angle, which helps ensure that it stays sharper for longer.
