GF-31-6 1/4 inch, 16cm Heavyweight Boning Knife, 6, Stainless Steel

I ordered a Global Santoku knife a while back from a recommend in a knife forum. Turns out it was a great knife, and it quickly became my wife’s favorite kitchen knife - we had Zwilling/Henkels for the most part before I got these. They’re light weight, keep the edge for a reasonable amount of time (they all get dull, these commercials for the “world’s sharpest knife!” are silly, whack stuff up on a cutting board, go through some turkeys and roasts and it’s as dull as the $4 knife at the dollar store). They’re kitchen knives, so rust really isn’t an issue. They’re also lightweight (I believe on the bigger knives, the handle has a hollow cavity) – it’s all one-piece construction, so no handles coming off or getting damaged or destroyed by washing or leaving it too close to a burner. For Christmas I decided to replace all of our Zwilling/Henkel knives with Global knives. I ordered them à la carte – like everybody else, Global’s big sets had more than I needed and not enough of what I wanted, so if you see this review in multiple places, that the reason. Anyway, the 6.25” boning knife is very nice, functional and worth the money.

Love this knife!!

This is a great knife. Replacement for one that I lost and this is even a bit better. Great feel in the hand, nice balance and a perfect flexible blade.

These knives are the best I’ve ever used in my 63 years of cooking. They are perfectly balanced and sharper than an ex wife’s tongue. No seriously, they are wicked sharp and cut through vegetables and meats effortlessly. Yes, they are expensive but they are a tool; a tool used every single day. You can spend just as much on a series of cheap knives needing replacement every few years, so what have you saved? Global knives were recommended by Anthony Bourdain so who am I to argue. My philosophy developed over decades of being an experienced human is: Buy the best first and you’ll save money in the long run.

This has been another addition to the Global knives for my Husband. He is starting cooking school soon and we are hoping that he can use these knives. If not we enjoy them in our home anyway. The order was prompt and the packaging was very sound. Thank You!

This is really a great knife and was an excellent addition to my growing collection of globals. i opted for the heavyweight instead of the flexible because i thought the rigid blade would allow me to steer it better. I have a friend with the flexible so i have tried both and i prefer the heavier, non-flexible blade.

This would have been my second Global. I love my 8" chef's knife. I bought this to replace a 30-year old Wüsthof Grand Prix. I'm small and this knife was too heavy and the blade too thick for my preference. I also found it to be quite dull in places on the blade out of the box. I'm returning it.

Lets start out with the fact I'm a professional meat cutter. I use boning knives everyday and went looking for a top notch, high quality knife. After extensive research I decided with this product. I am disappointed. My twenty dollar victorinox came with a better edge, not only that, it STILL has a better edge after two years of daily use. My second complaint is that it doesn't have a decent point to it. Has this knife already been jammed into a steel? For $140 (After tax and shipping) this is ridiculous. I suppose it's a good hunk of stainless steel, BUT is NOT usable out of box. First thing I have to do with this knife is sharpen it, and put a good point on it. Bottom line, go with victorinox over global. I haven't put this knife to the true test, but only years of work will determine that.

Súper contento con la compra.

Okok

My friend loved his knife. Great design and cuts very well.

Global is an established knife brand, so I knew I was buying quality
