Excellent Japanese chef knife
This is my sixth Global knife. They are sharp, durable and comfortable to hold. If you love cooking, a worthwhile investment to your collection. I use this specifically for vegetable chopping and helps me cut down my cooking time. Contrary to the regular, Global chef knife, this one isn't great for chopping in a rocking motion, as it was really designed for Japanese meals in mind, ie vegetables, fish, etc. I'd also recommend the miosharp sharpeners for a foolproof and safe way to keep your global knives in top condition.

Brilliant, Versatile and Essential.
Utterly fantastic blade. I use it for cutting, slicing, and dicing just about everything in the kitchen. Might not be wholly appropriate for some specialized tasks, but as an all-rounder this is just unbeatable. Keeps its edge with minimum sharpening on the ceramic wheels.

Great, Great knife!
According to Amazon 5 stars mean I love the knife and I'd go with that. Fantastic knife that I'll use for most jobs no matter how big or small. Feels really comfortable to use and very sharp. Not a lot else to say as there's no down sides to the knife!

Excellent quality knife
Global knives are the best. This one is a large fluted knife that cuts through meat, fish and vegetables easily without sticking to the blade.

Super sharp and chops like a dream
Love this knife. So sharp and the grooves mean nothing sticks.

Best knife ever
Best knife ever. Watch out so you don't cut yourself though because you literally let it rest on top of a tomato and it slides through. Need to have a knife sharpener to keep it sharp.

This is the second Global knife I have treated myself to and I'm not disappointed. As a keen cook I appreciate good tools and this cuts beautifully.

The most useful knife you will own
This has pretty much made my other knives obsolete. It can do pretty much every major task in the kitchen, and holds an edge brilliantly well.Just make sure you get a decent sharpener, or the extra investment in a decent knife is pointless.

Coltello Global, qualità Giapponese
Ottimo coltello, niente da dire, arrivato addirittura in anticipo, qualità prezzo assolutamente giusto al prodotto, facendo lo chef, posso dire con certezza che in negozio e rivendite il prezzo è addirittura un pelo alto, molto comodo.

Déçu par la qualité, ce couteau doit coûter 70€ max.

Global Knives are the Best
Love this knife, it came sharp and it is great quality. Originally got a set of Global knives in 2020 and have used them every day since, and all are still in good condition. I expect this knife to last a long time as well. Also, the knife and all the global knives hold up well in the dishwasher, occasionally needing a polish. I use pink solution cleaning paste on them every few months and handwash and dry them and they look as good as new.
