Know before you buy
This set is specifically engineered for slicing larger roasts, including turkey, pork, and prime rib. The 8.25-inch carving knife provides the length needed for clean, single-stroke slices, while the curved fork secures the meat firmly during the process.
The handles are hollow and filled with a precise amount of sand to achieve perfect weight distribution. This design ensures the knife feels balanced in your hand, providing superior control and reducing fatigue during repetitive slicing tasks.
Unlike traditional Western knives that often have wider edge angles, Global knives are ground to a much steeper 10 to 15-degree angle. This results in a significantly sharper edge that glides through proteins with minimal resistance.
No, the handles feature Global's signature dimple pattern, which is specifically designed to provide a secure, slip-resistant grip. This texture ensures the knife remains stable in your hand even when you are working with juices or oils.
To maintain the edge and the integrity of the stainless steel, we recommend hand washing the set with mild detergent and drying it immediately. Avoid putting these knives in the dishwasher, as the high heat and harsh detergents can dull the blade and damage the finish.
Yes, Global provides a lifetime warranty against defects in material, construction, or workmanship under normal use and care. This covers you against manufacturing issues, though it does not cover standard wear and tear or damage from improper use.
