“It’s a great set of knives. The edge is incredibly sharp. The only thing I would like to see is a somewhat larger width in the handles and some more weight. I’m very satisfied otherwise and looking forward to more of my old knives breaking so I can get more of these.”
“I love my Global knives. I have a set I’ve had for 25+ years, and they still sharpen up like new. I have other more expensive knives ( Cutco and Messermeister) but I still reach for the Global. think they are the best knives out there, especially for their price”
“The knife, steals and blades are absolutely stupendous! The edge design is razor sharp. The chef's knife works like a dream, I have never had such a pleasurable food prep before. The paring knife, on the other hand, is not my cup of tea. I like the blade design and length and performance. However, the handle is way way too narrow for me. It is flat like a surgical knife. I did not know just how narrow it would be. It is very difficult for me to do pairing work with the handle as is - I am simply unable to grip the handle (as you can see in the photo, I really have to squeeze my fingers to hold the blade which actually is very uncomfortable). I should have gotten the large handled paring knife with the same blade. Now that I'm more familiar with the Global knife handle design, I will probably end up getting the large handled one down the line. I was trying to save money by getting the two-piece set, which was a very good deal. However, in the end I didn't end up saving any money because I won't get much use out of the paring. All that said, I can't recommend the blade performance enough on these knives, and the ease in which they can be maintained on the sharpening stone and by stropping.”
