Global GF-34 Chef's Knife 27 cm - Cromova 18 Steel

If you are looking for a high-quality chef's knife that impresses with both its sharpness and robustness, the Global GF-34 chef's knife with a blade length of 27 cm is an excellent choice. This knife is part of Global's GF series, known for its forged blades with a wider spine and higher weight, which is particularly advantageous for demanding cutting tasks.

The blade of the GF-34 is made from Cromova 18 steel, a special alloy appreciated for its corrosion resistance and long-lasting sharpness. Through ice hardening, the blade achieves a hardness of 58 HRC, making it particularly resilient. The double-edged grind allows for precise cuts and makes the knife suitable for both right- and left-handed users.

The seamless transition between the blade and handle ensures hygienic handling and prevents the accumulation of dirt. The handle itself is made of stainless steel and filled with sand to ensure optimal balance. The characteristic black dimples on the handle provide a secure grip even with wet hands.

With its long blade, the GF-34 chef's knife is particularly suitable for cutting larger foods such as melons, pumpkins, or large pieces of meat. It allows for clean and even cuts, which facilitates food preparation and enhances the cooking experience.

Please note that this knife is not dishwasher safe. It should be hand-washed and dried immediately after use to maintain its quality and longevity. For resharpening, it is recommended to use a ceramic or diamond rod or a whetstone with a grit of at least 1000.
