Overview
A home cook who wants a single general chef's knife gets the Global G-2 in a one-piece stainless steel build. The blade and handle are both stainless steel, and the edge is plain rather than serrated.
The all-metal handle means no joint between handle and blade for food to collect in. The listing is short on specifics, with no hardness figure, edge angle or sharpening guidance.
Who it's for
Home cooks and students who want one reliable chef's knife for slicing, dicing and chopping. People with a small hand or who like a heavier, classic handle may want to try one in person.
Pros and cons
- Stainless steel blade and handle
- Plain edge for clean cuts
- Lifetime warranty listed
- Light weight for its size
- Blade hardness not listed
- Construction listed as stamped
- Metal handle can feel slick when wet
Performance notes
A plain edge slices cleanly through produce and boneless meat and takes a sharpening stone well. The knife is light for its length, so it feels nimble in the hand. Wipe the handle dry during use, because a stainless steel grip can slide.
