Global Knives SAI 9.75" Chef's Knife

A chef's knife is the workhorse of the kitchen, featuring a broad, sharp blade with a slight curve designed for rocking chopping motions. This versatile knife excels at a wide range of food preparation tasks, from chopping vegetables and herbs to breaking down meats and transferring ingredients. Its balanced design allows for precise, efficient cutting with reduced hand fatigue, making it an essential tool for both professional chefs and home cooks who want a single, multipurpose knife that can handle nearly every cutting task in the kitchen. GLOBAL SAI, designed by renowned industrial designer Komin Yamada, pays homage to the Samurai tradition of sword making. The slightly longer curved ergonomic handle provides a comfortable grip and features 7 signature black dots which represent the 7 Samurai codes of honor and moral principles. The blade's edge is polished by hand for exceptional long-lasting endurance. The unique thumb rest gives added comfort and control. Each blade is individually hammered by hand and designed so that small hollows create air pockets between the blade so food elegantly falls away from the surface.
