Global heavyweight 7-inch butcher knife. This heavyweight Global knife has more heft and a thicker blade than the knives in our classic G series. Excellent for butchering meat. Loved by professional chefs around the world, Global knives are an excellent choice for the serious home cook. The thin and razor-sharp Global blade allows the cook to cleanly slice through foods, preserving the integrity of the ingredient and maximizing its flavor. The majority of Global knives are ground to a straight point rather than the western style of beveling the edge. To balance their knives Global uses a hollow handle that is filled with just the right amount of sand to create the correct balance. The handle has its own unique darkened dimples for a non-slip grip. Global knives have a smooth contour and seamless, all stainless construction that eliminates food and dirt traps. Global knives are forged in Japan from Cromova 18 Stainless Steel, a blend of 18-percent chromium for good stain resistance plus molybdenum and vanadium which gives excellent edge retention.
