Global Ikasu Knife Block Set
When it comes to professional chef’s knives, Global set the benchmark for quality and performance. From the heel of their striking polka dot patterned handle to the tip of their surgical steel blade, these exceptional edged tools reflect innovative contemporary cutlery design at its award winning best.
Each knife is painstakingly hand-made by skilled artisans – not mass-produced by machines. The razor sharp blades are crafted from the finest grade molybdenum vanadium stainless steel, ice tempered and hardened to Rockwell C56o – 58o. This superior metal not only strenuously resists stains and corrosion, it also holds an edge far longer than ordinary cutlery steels.
The knife’s distinctive handle is an inspired departure from the banal. It’s ergonomically designed for optimum comfort and control and the trademark dimpled grip ensures a safe, non-slip hold. There are no rivets to work loose, no plastic or timber handles to crack and no gaps or joins to harbour harmful germs and bacteria.
With the Global Ikasu Chef’s Knife Set in your kitchen, you’re assured of having the right knife at hand to fulfil your grandest culinary ambitions. What’s more, this superlative cutlery set comes complete with a convenient storage solution in the form of a handsome bamboo block.
