Global knives
The first GLOBAL knives were designed in 1985 by Komin Yamada whose remit was to develop a range of knives which was truly new and revolutionary, harnessing the best materials available and the most modern design concepts.
With an almost unlimited budget he was to fashion a series of kitchen knives which would appeal to the professional and amateur chef alike, be comfortable and easy to handle, and meet their most demanding requirements.
GLOBAL knives are made from the finest stainless steel material. The blades utilize Molybdenum/vanadium stainless steel, ice tempered and hardened to Rockwell C56-58 degrees which holds a razor sharp edge longer than any other steel and resists rust, stains and corrosion.
Like most Japanese knives the blades of Global knives are thin and sharpened using a small - sometimes asymmetric - angle. This is what makes Japanese knives sharper than any other knives.
Another feature of Global knives is that the blades are sharpened all the way to the end. This makes it easy to maintain the edge on a sharpening stone.

About ceramic and diamond sharpening rods
Ceramic and diamond coated sharpening rods are ideal for keeping your knives in perfect condition. The fine surface makes these steels suitable for even the finest Japanese knives.
In contrary to regular sharpening steels, ceramic and diamond coated sharpening steels can also be used to sharpen dull knives. If the knives are damaged or extremely worn, we recommend to have the knives sharpened first by a professional knife sharpener.

How to use a ceramic or diamond coated sharpening rod
Sharpening a knife on a sharpening rod is much easier than most people think. The correct motion is like trying to shave off a very thin layer from the steel, starting with the back of the knife at on end of the steel and ending with the tip of the knife at the other end of the steel. Use only very slight pressure for the best results.
The angle between the knife and the steel depends on the type of knife. European knives usually have a thick edge and should be held against the steel with an angle of about 20 degrees. Japanese knives have a much thinner edge and should be held against the steel with an angle of about 10 degrees.

Ik heb de diamant slijpstaaf aan mijn vader cadeau gedaan en hij is er erg te vreden over. Hij is tevens over alle messen die hij heeft van Global meer dan te vreden. Hij vind het dan ook erg leuk om zijn kunsten in de keuken te vertonen en maakt er een spektakel als hij zijn messen met de diamant slijpstaaf scherp maakt of liever gezegd behoud.
