CONSTRUCTION
The construction of each Global Knife varies according to series label and intendedpurpose. Inherently stronger, Global hasfour series of knives that range from a blade-welded construction to a knifemade from a single piece of forged steel without welds. Global warrants itsknives for a lifetime against breakage and defect. Contact Global for moreinformation.
- G & GS Series ? Constructed from three pieces - the blade and the two halves of the handle that are welded at the blade - value and flawless construction make this series the most popular line.
- GF Series ? Drop forged construction from three pieces ? the blade and the two halves of the handle - the GF series has a blade and collar that is forged as one piece and feature internal welding in the handle for added strength.
- GSF Series ? The highest quality and strongest knives within the Global line, each knife is made from a single piece of forged steel with no welds.
BALANCE
The unique construction of Global knives makes it possible to balance each knifeperfectly. To achieve the perfectbalance, the two halves of the handle are manufactured hollow and then filledwith just enough steel to achieve the desired weight. Balance is determined by precision weightingof the handle, not size, as with other knives.
EDGE
Global manufactures the sharpest knives available and they stay sharp longer.Two to three times more surface area is sharpened on a Global knife due to FACEsharpening. Rather than beveling the blade,4 mm - 5 mm is sharpened straight to the edge to obtain razor sharpness.
SHARPENING
To maintain the FACE sharpening of your Global Knives, it is recommended thatyou sharpen them every four to six months with a whetstone or have your knivesprofessionally sharpened at least once a year. For more frequent sharpening, use a Global Ceramic or DiamondSharpening Rod and to achieve the optimum sharpening angle of the blade,Global?s clip-on Sharpening Guide Rails make whetting your knives simple. TheGlobal Sharpening Guide Rails clip onto the back edge of the knife blade andautomatically tilt the blade edge on the stone at the required angle.
WARRANTY
Lifetime guarantee against breakage and manufacturing defects. Contact GlobalKnives for Details.
