G-11 Yanagi Sashimi Knife, 10-Inch

With an ergonomic handle that is slightly longer and curved, providing a comfortable grip, the Global Sai knife features 7 signature black dots that symbolize the 7 Samurai codes of honor and moral principles. The beautiful hammered finish on the patented Cordova 18 core, made of Chromium, Molybdenum, Vanadium, and Carbon, creates air pockets that assist in releasing food while cutting, giving the blade non-stick properties. Designed by the legendary industrial designer Komin Yamada, Global cutlery's Sai collection brings a new era of innovation by merging function and design. These Japanese knives stand out with their revolutionary ergonomic handles and triple-layered steel blades that retain their extremely sharp edges. Sai is Global's first new cutlery line in over 25 years, blending the company's tradition of craftsmanship with modern technological advancements.

These knives are crafted with three layers of steel, including a core of ultra-hard Cromova 18 Sanso stainless-steel alloy and two outer layers of 18/8 steel, providing additional strength and resistance to rust. The professional-quality blades are ice-hardened and tempered to enhance hardness, resist corrosion, and maintain lasting sharpness. Each blade undergoes hand-hammering to create hollow air pockets that reduce drag, allowing for smooth cutting without food sticking. The blades have a 12.5-degree edge that is hand-polished for long-lasting sharpness. The perfectly balanced handle features an ergonomic thumb rest for efficient cutting and a steady, comfortable grip. Made in Japan, these knives are razor-sharp, remain sharp for an extended period, perfectly balanced, and have a seamless stainless steel construction with sure-grip handles.
