GLOBAL G-5 Nakiri | Vegetable Knife Global kitchen knives were first designed in 1985 by visionary Komin Yamada. Tasked with creating a revolutionary series, Yamada aimed to produce knives that combined professional performance with comfort and ease of use for both amateur and expert chefs. The GLOBAL knife signature features are its sharp edge and exceptional balance. Most GLOBAL knives are sharpened on both sides, similar to Western-style knives, but with a steeper, acute edge for unmatched sharpness that lasts longer. The prominent straight edge is visible to the naked eye and extends up from the tip, providing precision with every cut. Specifications:
