The Global 40th Anniversary 7 Piece Knife Block Set A includes:

• G-4 | 18cm Oriental Cook's Knife - The G-4 chef's knife is versatile for most kitchen tasks such as slicing, dicing, and chopping. Its performance closely matches that of the classic G-2 chef's knife, with the primary difference being aesthetic—the slight kink in the blade. This design element gives the knife an 'oriental' appearance but does not affect its functionality. Contrary to its appearance, the G-4 is not tailored specifically for oriental cuisine or techniques; rather, it offers a different shape compared to traditional chef's knives. Its gently curved blade facilitates a rocking motion while cutting, similar to a mezzaluna on a chopping board.
• GS-58 | 11cm Cook's Knife - The G-58 knife, measuring 11 cm, is a slightly smaller version of the same knife, featuring the large G series handle. The shorter blade offers better control and may feel less intimidating, especially for those with smaller hands. Regardless of size, all these knives perform the same tasks in the kitchen, making the choice largely a matter of personal preference.
• GS-110AN | 15cm Kiritsuke Knife - The newest addition to the Global family, is the GS-110, a small 15cm Kiritsuke Knife. A Kiritsuke Knife, traditionally much larger and over 24cm in length is used by Japanese head chefs as a multipurpose knife for slicing. Kiritsuke knives typically have very straight blades, like the Japanese Usuba vegetable knives, but with the longer blade of a Yanagiba knife. Such knives are hard to use and are usually only wielded by the most skilled Japanese chefs as a symbol of status. Our small Kiritsuke pays homage to the true knife, with a slightly curved blade to aid general cutting and function as a small chef's/cook's knife.
• GS-38 | 9cm Paring Knife - The GS-38 is a beautifully designed paring knife perfect for various small kitchen tasks. It serves as a hollow handle counterpart to the GSF-15 and is commonly included in newer knife sets. Its ergonomic hollow handle ensures comfortable handling, enhancing the overall user experience.
• GS-55 | 12cm Fluted Oriental Santoku Knife - The GS-55 Oriental Santoku knife features flutes that prevent food from sticking to the blade while cutting. It's ideal for slicing, dicing, and mincing, making it perfect for small vegetables and fruits. This versatile knife is an excellent all-purpose tool for various kitchen tasks.
• G-97 | 20cm Bread Knife - The G-97 is Global's traditional bread knife, featuring a classic design. It is 2cm shorter than the G-9 model and is primarily intended for cutting bread. The serrated edge is specifically crafted to slice through bread crusts, but it can also be effective for tougher meats like crackling.
