Know before you buy
The G-76 features a specialized blade profile designed for a rocking motion, which allows you to mince herbs quickly and consistently. Its 7-inch length provides enough surface area to cover large bunches of herbs while remaining more maneuverable than a full-sized chef's knife.
The lightweight construction reduces wrist fatigue during repetitive chopping tasks. Because the blade is exceptionally sharp, it relies on its edge geometry rather than heavy downward pressure to slice through delicate herbs without bruising them.
While the high-quality stainless steel is resistant to corrosion, it is not entirely rust-proof. To maintain the edge and finish, we recommend hand washing the knife immediately after use and drying it thoroughly rather than leaving it in the sink or running it through a dishwasher.
Yes, because Global knives have a distinct edge geometry, it is best to use a whetstone or a sharpener specifically designed for Japanese-style blades. Avoid using pull-through sharpeners meant for thicker, Western-style knives, as they can damage the fine edge.
While optimized for herbs, the G-76 is also highly effective for chopping garlic, shallots, and small vegetables. However, it is not intended for heavy-duty tasks like cutting through bone or frozen foods, which could chip the thin, razor-sharp edge.
