The Global 8" Fluted Cook's Knife is a versatile Japanese kitchen essential designed for precise, effortless cutting. Crafted from Global's proprietary CROMOVA 18 stainless steel, the blade is formulated with chromium for corrosion resistance, carbon for hardness, molybdenum for toughness, and vanadium for a fine grain structure. Its fluted edge creates small air pockets between the blade and food, helping reduce friction and minimize sticking while slicing vegetables, proteins, and other delicate ingredients. The hollow handle is filled with dry sand and sealed, allowing the sand to shift the knife's center of gravity toward the bolster for a lighter, well-balanced feel. The dimpled handle provides a secure, comfortable grip and excellent control, making this knife suitable for slicing, dicing, chopping, and a variety of everyday kitchen tasks.
