## Features

- Material: Cromova 18 stainless steel Product Dimension: 20cm blade
- Use Always use caution when handling sharp objects. Avoid cutting on hard surfaces such as hard countertops stone, metal or glass. It is not advisable to use any knife but a meat cleaver to cut through bone, as other blades can be easily damaged. Care We recommend cleaning Global knives by hand using dishwashing liquid and water. After washing, rinse thoroughly with water and dry with a towel. Global knives should not be put in the dishwasher. Doing so could damage the sharp edges if they come into contact with other objects in the dishwasher. Exposure to extreme heat and powerful detergents can be harmful to the Cromova 18 high carbon stainless steel.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are the Global knives dishwasher safe?**
A: The knife is 100% stainless steel and is absolutely dishwasher safe, do not believe the knife-nazi hype. THAT BEING SAID, I have a 3rd drawer in my dishwasher which is all the way at the top of the cabinet, and allows me to place the knife lengthwise with blade edge facing down in it's own slot, where the edge of the blade is held in small plastic tines so it cannot bounce around and hit other hard objects. DO NOT place the knife haphazardly in the rack where it can bang around against other items or metal racks. Occasionally I get small rust spots on the blade which come off in seconds with a green scrubby pad. No amount of careful handling will prevent the blade from dulling. It will need to be sharpened periodically. I have washed my global knife in the dishwasher for years and maintain a shaving sharp blade with a diamond stone and a polish-coated strop, however any reasonable sharpening system will work. "Never put a kitchen knife in the dishwasher" is an old wives tale and simply not based in reality. Splashing hot soapy water on any knife made of stainless/ceramic/plastic just won't cause damage, period. Do not place a wood handled knife in the washer because the wood will swell, dry and crack, which is where this outdated advice comes from.I do not own any wooden handled knives for this reason, wash all of them in the dishwasher regularly, and they all can shave the hairs on my arm. I sharpen about once every 6 months on the diamond "stones", and about once a month with a diamond coated "honing steel". A few strokes on my leather strop keeps the razors edge, and will remove any small burrs, "wire", or rolls of the edge.A good knife is a tool and should be treated as such. Use it, maintain it, and do not be afraid of it. They are not precious works of art that need to be handled with kid gloves.

**Q: are the blades stamped or forged?**
A: There seems to be some confusion with the previous answers given. Global makes stamped AND forged knives. This knife, the G-2, is stamped, not forged. They make a heavier duty line of forged cutler, which are prefixed with GF. The forged version (8.25") of this knife is model #GF-33 (http://www.amazon.com/Global-GF-33-4-Inch-21-cm-Heavyweight/dp/B00005OL4N). I own this as well as quite a few other Global knives, and they are all excellent. I actually prefer the stamped to the forged version. It is lighter and very nimble in my hands. It comes down to a preference to European type chef knives (Sabatier, Wüsthof, Henckels, etc) vs Asian type chef knives (Global, Shun, MAC, etc). I prefer the lighter style of Asian knife without a heavy bolster over my Henckels. YYMV. This knife is extremely sharp, however, and is one of my favorite knives that I own. Using it is simply a joy unto itself!

**Q: Does the knife come with a case or sheath?**
A: This listing has a sheath: amazon.com/dp/B07WD5K8NB

**Q: I am trying to register this knife with global since there is a lifetime warranty. There is no serial number on the knife, do you know where it is?**
A: After 23 or so years of use, had a smaller Global knife snap between handle and blade.  Global fully honored the warranty, fully replaced it.  I don’t recall ever registering it, Global just asked for photos of old knife and the pieces back once new one arrived.  My other 5 knifes have had zero problems. Great knife, great company that backs its products

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Classic Knife to Have in the Kitchen – Returned Only for Personal Preference
*by N***U on 29 September 2025*

This Global 20 cm Cook’s Knife is truly a kitchen classic. The stainless steel blade is razor-sharp, and the ergonomic dimpled handle offers excellent grip and balance. It’s lightweight yet sturdy, making it ideal for everyday chopping, slicing, and dicing. I ended up returning it—not because of any flaw—but simply because I decided to invest in a more sophisticated Japanese knife with a different steel and handle style. That said, this knife is a fantastic choice for most home cooks and even professionals. If you're looking for a reliable, stylish, and well-crafted multipurpose knife, this one won’t disappoint.
