The beechwood block also provides a softer storage solution for your knives and has the added bonus of containing natural anti-bacterial qualities.
Crafted from high quality Cromova18 stainless steel and ice hardened to Rockwell 56-58, each blade features an acute 15° cutting edge which holds its razor sharp edge for longer, yet is easily sharpened when required.
Hollow handles are filled with sand to provide excellent balance whilst the classic Global dotted handles provide a secure grip (the GSF-22 utility knife and GSF-15 peeling knife have solid handles).
Smooth contours and seamless construction eliminate food or dirt traps, offering the ultimate in safety and hygiene.
