Product DescriptionThis 3.5-in paring knife features a curved handle for a molded grip. Excellent for peeling vegetables and slicing citrus. Loved by professional chefs around the world, Global knives are an excellent choice for the serious home cook. The thin and razor sharp Global blade allows the cook to cleanly slice through foods, preserving the integrity of the ingredient and maximizing its flavor. The majority of Global knives are ground to a straight point rather than the western style of beveling the edge. To balance their knives Global uses a hollow handle that is filled with just the right amount of sand to create the correct balance. The handle has its own unique darkened dimples for a non-slip grip. Because the knives are very light weight they reduce hand fatigue. Global knives have a smooth contour and seamless, all stainless construction that eliminates food and dirt traps. Global knifes are forged in Japan from CROMOVA 18 Stainless Steel, a blend of 18 percent chromium for good stain resistance plus molybdenum and vanadium which gives excellent edge retention.
What Others Say
A little disappointed
I got this knife as a gift, and after reading the reviews, I expected to be wowed. Don't get me wrong, this is an excellent knife, by in my opinion, no better than my Henkel knives. It is a very pretty design, very light and very comfortable.
My favorite knife
Of all my Global knives I have bought recently, this is my favorite - I just love it. It is very light and so easy to use and has so many uses and especially good for peeling vegetables. One of my best buys.
