Global Knives Santoku Knife 13cm

The Global Santoku Knife 13cm is a Japanese all round knife, similar to the Chef's knife. Santoku can be loosely translated as 'three virtues' referring to cutting tasks of slicing; dicing; and mincing. Unlike the Chef's knife the Santoku blade is virtually straight os chopping is achieved with up/down motion rather than a rocking action. The Global Santoku Knife 13cm GS35 is from the GS Series which are a collection of small and medium knives suitable for more detailed and delicate food preparation. Global knives are world renown as some of the finest knives from Japan, the home of the Samurai sword. They are made from the finest Cromova 18 stainless steel, ice tempered and hardened to Rockwell C56° – 58° which holds a razor sharp edge longer than any other steel and resists rust, stains and corrosion. Like the Samurai swords before them each knife is carefully weighted to ensure perfect balance in the hand. The smooth contours and seamless construction eliminate food and dirt traps, offering the ultimate in safety and hygiene.
