Global Chef's Knife - Made in Japan, 8

The Global Model X 8" Chef's Knife is an upgraded version of the popular Global G-2 Chef's Knife, which has been one of the top-selling Japanese chef's knives to date. Known for its versatility and perfect balance, the Global Model X is a reliable tool in any kitchen.

What sets Global knives apart are their innovative features, particularly their exceptional edge and balance. The edge of a knife is crucial, and Global knives boast a signature edge that sets them apart from others. Most Global knives, like the Model X, are sharpened on both sides of the blade, similar to Western-style knives. This ensures a sharp edge that lasts longer.

Crafted in Japan, the Model X features a wider blade made from top-quality stainless steel known as Cromova 18, which contains Chromium, Molybdenum, and Vanadium. This premium steel is designed exclusively for Global knives, ensuring durability and longevity. Additionally, the hollow handle of the knife is filled with sand to achieve the perfect weight and balance for optimal control.

Furthermore, the blade of the Global Model X is ice tempered and hardened to Rockwell 56-58 degrees, maintaining its razor-sharp edge through extended use. The knife also boasts an improved ergonomic stainless steel handle with a signature dimple pattern, providing a comfortable and slip-resistant grip. The pinch grip design offers unparalleled control, making it ideal for precise chopping tasks.

Backed by a lifetime warranty, the Global Model X 8" Chef's Knife measures 2" in blade height, with a 4mm spine thickness, an 8" blade length, and an overall length of 13.25". Weighing 9.2 oz. (262g), this knife is not only a reliable tool but also a stylish addition to any kitchen.
