Global Chef's Knife - Made in Japan, 8 (Hollow Edge)

The Exclusive Global Model X 8" Chef's Knife with Hollow Edge is a collaborative effort between our team and Global to enhance one of the best-selling Japanese chef's knives in existence. This knife is the ultimate multitasking tool in the kitchen, boasting unparalleled balance. The scalloped grooves along the blade's edge minimize friction and prevent foods from sticking, making it perfect for mincing, cutting, chopping, slicing, and all types of preparation work.

Global knives stand out for their innovative features, especially their edge and balance. The edge is the most crucial aspect of any knife, and the Global edge is truly exceptional. Most Global knives are sharpened on both sides of the blade, akin to Western-style knives. The wider blade is constructed from Cromova 18, a top-quality stainless steel blend of Chromium, Molybdenum, and Vanadium specifically developed for Global.

The hollow handle of the knife is filled with sand to achieve the desired weight, ensuring perfect balance for optimal control. It is ice tempered and hardened to Rockwell 56-58 degrees, maintaining its razor-sharp edge longer than other types of steel. The improved ergonomic handle is crafted from stainless steel for hygiene and features Global's signature dimple pattern for a comfortable, slip-resistant grip. The pinch grip design offers unrivaled control, making it ideal for precise chopping tasks.

Crafted in Japan and backed by a lifetime warranty, this knife features a 2" blade height, 4mm spine thickness, and weighs 9.2 ounces (262g). Its overall length is 13.25" with an 8" blade length. Experience the craftsmanship and precision of the Exclusive Global Model X 8" Chef's Knife with Hollow Edge, a kitchen essential for professionals and home cooks alike.
