Global G-5838 Knife Set (2-piece) G-58 / GS-38

This G-5838 2-piece knife set from Global includes a 16cm chef's knife and a steak and utility knife. With this set, you get two incredibly versatile and high-quality knives. You'll enjoy using both knives daily.

G58 Chef's Knife (16cm)
The chef's knife is arguably the most important knife in the kitchen. With a chef's knife, you can quickly cut large quantities of food. Professional chefs often use a longer knife, such as 26cm or more, and they opt for the G2 chef's knife. For home use, the G58 chef's knife of 16cm is ideal.

GS38 Steak and Utility Knife
The GS38 from Global is a very versatile knife. It's perfect for smaller cutting and peeling tasks, making it essentially a small chef's knife.

The advantages of Global knives

Global knives are made from patented and extremely hard Cromova 18 steel. No other knife brand is allowed to use this steel. The handle is the most striking feature of Global knives. The small dimples provide more grip than average when cutting, even with wet hands. Additionally, the handle is hollow and filled with sand, ensuring the knife fits perfectly in your hand. The sand is carefully measured so that your knife is perfectly balanced in your hand.

More about Cromova 18 steel

The fine grain structure of this unique steel ensures that the knives can be sharpened to a very keen edge. Cromova 18 steel has a hardness of 58 HRC. The hardness is slightly less than many other Japanese knives. The big advantage of this is that you can easily resharpen your knives yourself. Global knives are convex ground. This means that the edge of the blade is not ground in a V-shape, but in a U-shape. This makes the edge much stronger. You can also resharpen these convex-ground knives yourself. Use a sharpening stone for this!

How do you maintain your Global knives?

We advise against putting your Global knives in the dishwasher. In the dishwasher, your knife can come into contact with other (flying) kitchen utensils. You don't want scratches or dents on your blade, do you? Fortunately, a Global knife is easy to clean by hand. The handle and the blade seamlessly merge, so no dirt can get stuck anywhere.
