This chef's knife improves upon the original Global G-2 Chef's Knife; one of the best selling Japanese chef's knives ever made. The Global Model X 8" Chef's Knife is the multipurpose workhorse of the kitchen, providing the ultimate balance. The two most innovative features of Global knives are their edge and the way they are balanced. The most important feature of any knife is its edge, and the Global edge is truly its signature. The majority of the Global knives are sharpened or ground on both sides of the blade, just like Western style knives. Made in Japan.
