Features

  • 9 3/4" Chef's Knife is the "workhorse" of the kitchen and perfect for cutting, chopping, slicing and prep work
  • Every GLOBAL SAI blade is made of the finest stainless steel, Cordova 18, designed exclusively for GLOBAL
  • Tempered and hardened to Rockwell C56 Degree-C58 Degree, SAI blades hold their razor sharp edges longer than other steel and resist rust, stains and corrosion
  • Lightweight and balanced for easy handling in the kitchen
  • Smooth contours and seamless construction eliminate food and dirt traps

Description

The slightly longer curved ergonomic handle provides a comfortable grip and features 7 signature black dots which represent the 7 Samurai codes of honor and moral principles. The beautiful hammered finish applied to the patented Cordova 18 core (Chromium, Molybdenum, Vanadium and Carbon) produces air pockets which help release food while cutting, giving the blade non-stick properties. Legendary industrial designer Komin Yamada brings a new age of innovation to Global cutlery with Sai, unifying function and design, these distinctive Japanese knives combine revolutionary ergonomic handles with triple-layered steel blades that maintain their exceptionally sharp edges. The first new cutlery line produced by Global in more than 25 years, Sai blends the Japanese company's tradition of craftsmanship with modern technological advancements. The knives combine three layers of steel: a core of patented, ultra-hard Cromova 18 Sanso stainless-steel alloy and two outer layers of more flexible 18/8 steel for added strength and resistance to rust. Professional- quality blades are ice-hardened and tempered to increase hardness, resist corrosion and maintain long-lasting sharpness. Each blade is hand-hammered to create hollow air pockets that reduce drag, allowing the blade to glide through food without sticking. 12.5-degree blade edge is mirror-polished by hand for exceptionally long-lasting sharpness. The perfectly balanced handle has an ergonomic thumb rest for a smooth, efficient cutting motion and steady, comfortable grip. Made in Japan.

    • A well rounded knife
Size: 7-1/2" Color: Silver
The knife feels good. It is well weighted and easy to handle. While I do not have a problem with slipping, I can see why for others it maybe a problem. I personally do not care for the indent on the handle because that is generally not where I hold knives. I place my grip it further up onto the knife, on the blade and right before the bolster, holding it between the thumb and the index finger. (Look up how to hold a chef knife) So for me I don't think whether it is left handed or right makes a difference or not really anymore slippery than another knife. A fairly sharp knife out of the box, as with any knife from the factory, however you should sharpen it to get a much sharper edge. It can hold its edge for a while with moderate use at home. It doesn't hold as long in everyday restaurant use, of course, but its edge outlast most of the other knives my coworkers have. ... show more

    • Superb knife
Size: 7-1/2" Color: Silver
The knife is extremely nice; the handle is ergonomic (for right-handed people only!), the balance is great, and the knife is visually appealing. The tsuchime finish allows "sticky" foods like potatoes to slide off the knife much easier than a smooth-sided knife. I will say that out of the box the blade wasn't quite as sharp as I was expecting, however a few passes over a ceramic hone cleaned it right up. ... show more

    • great edge and perfect balance
Size: 7-1/2" Color: Silver
This knife is great for almost everything. Makes tasks alot easier to do and holds its edge almost perfectly. Balances well in the hand and great for fine chopping herbs as well since the handle is heavy it helps in the rocking movement for going back and forth. I love it and I've used globals for about 10 years. ... show more

    • Super sharp, a bit heavy but a great knife
Size: 9-3/4" Color: Silver
This is a serious knife. Super sharp, a bit heavy but a great knife. The blade is a bit thick. Holds an edge and sharpens well. Worth the investment

    • Not for the left-handed. And not particularly sharp either.
Size: 8" Color: Silver
I really wanted to love this for the look and because it looks like the Sai bread knives have the serrated edge on the opposite side, which would be perfect for us lefties. However, unlike the classic Global, the handle is asymmetrical so it is more comfortable in the right hand. It is heavy - at least as heavy as its German counterparts. That may be a good thing for some, but it made it feel clunky for me. Most importantly, this was not nearly as sharp as the other Japanese knives I tried (classic Global and Shun). I actually tried two different knives from two different distributors and both failed the paper test out of the box. ... show more

    • Amazing How Quality Matters....
Size: 5-1/2" Color: Silver
Beautifully crafted, weighted perfectly. Slices? .. uh, yes... drops itself through red peppers, for example. Makes cooking in the kitchen a pleasure.
