Chef's Knife Global Kiritsuke
Many Japanese knife makers traditionally produce a traditional single-edged specialty knife known as a Kiritsuke. It requires skill to use effectively, and in many Japanese restaurants only the chef was allowed to use this knife. Therefore, the Kiritsuke knife was considered a symbol of competence, status and respect.
In honor of this tradition, Global® has created a modern version of the double-sided sharpening Kiritsuke. Kiritsuke knives are one of the few versatile traditional Japanese knives that can be used as a yanagi (for cutting fish and sushi) or as an usuba (vegetable knife). These knives have a sword-shaped blade that is straighter than the yanagi for vegetables and a longer blade than the usuba for comfortable cutting of fish.

A hundred-year-old tradition

GLOBAL knives have been handcrafted in Japan using the same traditions for over 30 years and are crafted using the finest raw materials available. Like all samurai swords before it, each blade is carefully balanced to ensure perfect balance in the hand.
