## Overview

The Global SAI 6 Inch Vegetable Knife features a hand-hammered triple-layered Cordova 18 stainless steel blade tempered to Rockwell C56-C58 hardness, ensuring razor-sharp, long-lasting edges. Its ergonomic handle with a thumb rest and signature 7-dot design offers superior grip and control. Lightweight and perfectly balanced, this Japanese-crafted knife resists rust and corrosion while delivering non-stick cutting performance thanks to its unique hammered finish.

## 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.

    (Global SAI-M06) It's a pretty piece of steel
  

*by W***E on Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2020*

The jury is still out for me on this knife (Global SAI-M06).  It's a very attractive design and an impressive piece of steel.  I'm not a pro cook but I do know tools.I'm disappointed in the grind from the factory.  It's not entirely even and on one side of the blade I can clearly see how the bevel was set on a powered wheel and the operator was not smooth all across the edge creating the bevel.  It was decently sharp as shipped but a touch up by hand on a ceramic finishing stone and a stropping improved it.  There were some very small knicks in the edge which could be felt dragging it along the fingernail.Not sure if I'll be exchanging it, will see how it holds an edge and if it does well will hand sharpen it like it should have been from the beginning.Pros - Perfect balance, looks like good steel, very nice designCons - Factory grind, Cost.  For a $130+ knife the final sharpening and inspection should not have passed.(edit) I ended up returning this one and buying a lower-end Global, which I'm delighted with - better grind as shipped, sharper as shipped, a delight to use.  This SAI I received may have been a countefeit based on this.
