An exceptional alternative to the classic chef’s knife, the GLOBAL® Santoku Knife is specially designed for efficient chopping, slicing, and mincing of vegetables and delicate proteins. Its straight-edge blade and blunted sheepsfoot tip offer precision and stability, while the thinner spine allows for cleaner cuts through ingredients like fish, herbs, and boneless meats. Forged from a single piece of CROMOVA 18 stainless steel, this knife features a unique convex edge for unparalleled sharpness and edge retention. Ice-tempered and hardened to Rockwell C56–58, it resists corrosion and maintains its razor-sharp edge through extended use. The ergonomic, slip-resistant handle—crafted in Global’s iconic dimpled pattern—is filled with sand to deliver perfect balance and cutting control. A must-have for cooks seeking precision and versatility in everyday prep.
