Designed as an excellent alternative to the traditional chef’s knife, this Global GS series Santoku knife offers a straighter blade with a hollow ground edge that improves food release, minimizing sticking during slicing. Its blunted sheepsfoot tip and thinner spine enable easy, precise cuts of vegetables, fish, and boneless meats. Constructed from a single piece of Global’s proprietary CROMOVA 18 stainless steel, the blade is ice tempered and hardened to a Rockwell rating of C56–58, ensuring long-lasting razor-sharp edges and excellent corrosion resistance. The ergonomic stainless steel handle is hollow and filled with sand to provide perfect balance and control, finished with Global’s signature dimple pattern for a comfortable, slip-resistant grip. This classic small-to-medium-sized knife from the GS series is ideal for a range of general and specialized kitchen tasks.
