The choice of many professional chefs, Global Japanese stainless steel knives are universally respected for their unique design and exceptional performance.

They are handcrafted from Cromova 18, the finest high carbon stainless steel. This is hard enough to retain a superior cutting edge, but not so hard it is difficult to sharpen.

The blades of Global knives are ground straight to a point, rather than bevelled, resulting in a dramatically sharper cutting edge, and superior hygiene is offered by the smooth contours and seamless stainless steel construction.

This set will make an admirable feature on any work surface. It contains the following Global knives:

• 18cm cook's knife
• 15cm flexible utility knife
• 13cm cook's knife
• 12cm utility knife
• 9cm paring knife

All the pieces fit neatly into the walnut knife block, which has non-slip rubber feet.

Global knives are not suitable for dishwashers, and are not available to under 18s.
