The most important feature of any
knife is its edge, and the GLOBAL edge is truly its signature. The majority of
the GLOBAL knives are sharpened or ground on both sides of the blade, just like
Western style knives. However, their edges are ground steeply to a point as
illustrated in Fig. 1, and to an acute angle. This is in contrast to Western or
European knives that use a beveled edge, Fig. 2. The straight edge results in a
dramatically sharper knife which stays sharper longer. The edge on a GLOBAL
knife is so large and prominent that it is easily seen with the naked eye and
extends a quarter of an inch or more up from the tip of the knife.
CROMOVA 18 is a steel, with a special mixture of molybdenum, vanadium and chromium. The exact combination is our trade secret, but the steel is made to be hard enough so that the knives retain their sharpness, yet soft enough to sharpen with a whetstone. The high chromium content gives the knives excellent resistance to rust and staining.
