Review: Fantastic knife - Perfect, have been a fan of global knives and bought this as a replacement for one I stupidly broke (my fault entirely)
Review: Sublime. - Working in a kitchen myself (stage), this is a fantastic knife. Using my 8000 grit stones it takes and keeps an edge - with either a gentle stropping or honing once every two days, it lasts fantastically. Clean, crisp cuts with little cell damage - and light enough that it won't tire you out nor require too much force behind it. Perfect balance, for me, at least. No droppages yet - though the welded construction makes me slightly concerned. Still, not enough to stop it being a fantastic knife!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic knife
*by K***G on 7 January 2026*

Perfect, have been a fan of global knives and bought this as a replacement for one I stupidly broke (my fault entirely)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sublime.
*by S***B on 23 August 2015*

Using my 8000 grit stones it takes and keeps an edge - with either a gentle stropping or honing once every two days, it lasts fantastically.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So far have used it a few times and seems to stay sharp for good period of use
*by K***P on 12 April 2015*

Once sharpened properly, it really makes for effortless slicing, cutting and dicing. So far have used it a few times and seems to stay sharp for good period of use. Quite light and the design of the handle might not be to everyone's liking as it is all metal and fairly slim. It suits me fine and find it easy to clean. Would not go back to using "non-premium" knives. Only downside is that the price in the UK is so much higher than in the USA (even on Amazon itself) and the difference is not fully accounted for by tax and duty. I was lucky to pick one up at an attractive spot price from an Amazon marketplace seller.
