Global 5-Piece Knife Set with Storage Dock Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)These have got to be the sweetest knives I have ever used. I used to use a Henckle chef knife, but it doesn't hold a candle to the Global.
I only have two beefs with these knives:
1) They are so sharp that they can leave deep gouges in your cutting board if you are careless (especially the serrated while cutting bread).
2) The knive handle is more difficult to dry because its dimples like to retain water. When it is wet it can create an unusual tactile sensation in your hand.
These are minor things though. The bottom line is that the knives make cutting and chopping a pleasure.
And they look cool too!

Loved by professional chefs, Global knives are an excellent choice for the serious home cook.The razor sharp blades are forged in Japan from CROMOVA 18 stainless steel, which holds its edge longer than any other steel.Global knives are sharpened further up the edge of the blade than German-style knives, creating a straight edge- in fact two or three times more surface area is sharpened on a Global knife.Lightweight in your hand, the knives offer superior control and precision.Inspired by the crafting of ancient samurai swords, each knife is carefully weighted for perfect balance and comfort. The smooth contours and seamless construction prevent food and dirt particles from collecting on the knife. Gorgeous modern design includes a textured handle for a secure grip.These knives have remarkably sharp, flexible blades that have been ice-tempered and hardened to meet stringent standards - perfect for slicing bread, carving meat or peeling vegetables. Each one holds its razor sharp edge longer than any other steel and resists rust, stains and corrosion.Set Includes:4-in. Paring Knife5-in. Utility Knife8.25-in. Carving Knife8-in.

Global GSF-4023 Four-Piece Steak Knife Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)These knives are quite sharp. They are heavier than most steak knives. They have a nice feel to them.
However, they have these fine serrations. I contacted Global and asked about the serrations and sharpening.... they replied.
"It is quite typical to have it to have it with the steak knife to cut the stringy meat. However, it is not available to sharpen the edge."
I love my Global knives, but I am not so sure how I feel about not being able to sharpen the knives, as I would expect to keep knives of this nature forever. I am contemplating purchasing an electric sharpener that can sharpen knives with serrations.....
I gave 4 stars because of my ambivalence about the serrations. The knives are more than capable of cutting steak.

Global G888/91ST 9-Piece Knife Set with Block Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have used Global knives professionally as a Chef/Restauranteur and at Home for many years. I still have the first Global I ever bought the 11" Forged Chefs Knife it has done alot of serious cutting and still looks new. I have many more now but that was my first Global and what a knife it is.
The ergonomics and looks alone would sell these knives but couple that with their edge holding and incredible sharpness and they are truly the Ferrari of knives. They offer a perfect nonslip grip for any size hand and the balance and light weight make using them a a breeze. Also the metal storage block not only looks cool but will not dull your knives like a wood block does. BONUS.
Considering that you will be passing on these knives from generation to generation the cost should not be a serious concern. There are no handles or bolsters to break (or gather germs) they are one piece of perfectly balanced steel. If you take reasonably good care of these knives they will last you a lifetime of hard use and your kids lifetime too. My Globals have chopped, peeled and sliced for literally hundreds of thousands of people. I seriously doubt most of you will put them through that. But it is good to know that they will take it in stride.
I even take mine on vacation with me, not all of them just the basic kit I refuse to cook without them. We take long vacations and know we eat better at the rented home or villa than at most of the restaurants in what ever area we are in. One of the perks of being a Chef, don't worry we still give the finer eateries a spin it is a vacation after all. The locals have to eat too!
You will thank yourself everytime you use these knives, if you know a foodie you really care for get them at least a starter set as a gift. They will love you for it and you will get more great food out of them too.
Life is too short to use cheesy knives! You know the ones.
Live,Love,Cook,Eat and Drink Like You Mean it!!
