Cromova 18 Stainless Steel Blades
The Cromova 18 high carbon stainless steel blades are made from a proprietary blend of chromium, molybdenum, and vanadium, designed exclusively for Global knives. Each blade is ice-tempered and hardened to a Rockwell Hardness of 56-58, giving it a razor-sharp, convex edge that stays sharp longer than most other blades. The blades are also highly resistant to rust, stains, and corrosion.
Signature Global Design
Each Global knife features the signature stainless steel molded dimpled handle, designed for a safe grip and perfect balance. The hollow handle is filled with sand to achieve the ideal weight distribution, making the knife lightweight yet powerful, reducing hand fatigue during use.
Unique Edge and Bevel
The Global edge is its most defining feature. Unlike Western knives that use a beveled edge, Global knives have a straight edge ground to an acute angle, resulting in a dramatically sharper knife. This unique edge stays sharper longer and is easily visible to the naked eye, extending a quarter of an inch or more from the tip of the knife.
Designed by Komin Yamada
These knives are designed by the legendary designer Komin Yamada, who draws inspiration from nature to create harmony between the person and the utensil, bringing a unique balance and beauty to every knife.
Trusted by Home and Professional Chefs
Global knives are trusted by both home and professional chefs around the world. Their lightweight design and razor-sharp edge help reduce hand fatigue, while their durability ensures the blades retain their sharpness longer than other major brands. These knives are still handcrafted in Niigata, Japan, to extremely high standards, preserving tradition while embracing innovation.

Care Instructions
Hand washing is recommended to maintain the sharpness and integrity of the blades. Avoid placing these knives in the dishwasher, as it may cause damage to the fine edges.
