A thousand years ago, Japanese swordsmiths perfected the art of sword making to create strong, sharp blades for the Samurai. Today, Global knives continue this tradition, crafted by hand in Japan for over 30 years using the finest raw materials. Like the Samurai swords of the past, each Global knife is meticulously balanced for a perfect fit in the hand.
Global kitchen knives were first introduced in 1985 by visionary designer Komin Yamada. His mission was to create a ground-breaking collection of knives using top-quality materials and cutting-edge techniques. The goal? To design a range that would appeal to both professional and home chefs, offering comfort, ease of use, and the ability to meet the highest culinary standards.
