The Global GS-5 Classic Vegetable Knife is the petite powerhouse of the Global knife family, designed for those who appreciate the finer details in food preparation.
Key Features:
-
Compact Yet Mighty: The GS-5 is the smaller sibling to the G-5 vegetable chopper, offering the same blade shape but in a more manageable size. Inspired by traditional Japanese Usuba knives, this design ensures that the blade's flat sections make full contact with the chopping board for clean, precise cuts.
-
Dual-Purpose Blade: The blade's flat profile is ideal for chopping through fruits and vegetables, while the curved front allows for a rocking motion similar to a chef's knife, encouraging correct cutting technique and efficiency.
-
CROMOVA 18 Stainless Steel: Crafted from CROMOVA 18 stainless steel, the GS-5 blade holds a razor-sharp edge while resisting rust, stains, and corrosion. This high-quality steel ensures long-lasting performance and durability.
-
Acute 15-Degree Cutting Edge: The knife features an acute 15-degree cutting edge, delivering exceptional sharpness and edge retention. This angle enhances cutting precision and performance.
-
Ice Tempered and Hardened: The blade is ice tempered and hardened to Rockwell C56-58, a process that strengthens the steel and maintains its sharpness over time.
-
Seamless Construction: The GS-5 boasts a seamless design that eliminates food and dirt traps, promoting superior hygiene and easy cleaning. The smooth contours of the handle provide a comfortable grip and enhance safety.
-
Perfectly Balanced: The handle is expertly weighted by filling it with sand, achieving an optimal balance that offsets the blade's weight for a comfortable and controlled cutting experience.
-
Versatile and Popular: The GS-5 is a staple in many Global knife block sets due to its versatility and popularity. It’s perfect for a variety of vegetable cutting tasks and is favored by both professional chefs and home cooks.
-
Made in Japan: As with all Global knives, the GS-5 is meticulously crafted in Japan, reflecting the country’s renowned standards of knife-making excellence.
