Global G-79 Hollow-Edge Cook’s Knife 16 cm

Description

Absolute precision and control find their perfect tool in the Global G-79, the most compact hollow-edge cook’s knife in the Global series, with a 16 cm non-stick blade. This smaller size does not limit its abilities: it boosts total command in detailed tasks, delicate preparations and kitchens with limited space, all while keeping the technological advantage of dimples that help sticky ingredients release.

Forged in Cromova 18 steel tempered to 56-58 HRC, it keeps the same edge quality as its larger siblings while the calibrated dimples reduce sticking of cheese, potatoes and fatty meats. The compact format allows precise moves impossible with longer knives. Its balanced 140 g weight, set with weighted sand, gives millimetre control without fatigue during long sessions of fine work. A beech wood board 40×30 cm is a perfect match for this handy format.

Why choose the 16 cm hollow-edge Global G-79?

Cooks who put precision first value how the 16 cm offer full control in every move. First, the compact size makes close-to-the-board work easy without losing visibility. Then, it allows delicate cuts on small ingredients where long knives feel clumsy. Likewise, the dimples help even in this reduced format when you work with ingredients that tend to stick.

Its compact versatility shines in kitchens with limited space, tapas bars or small prep stations where every centimetre counts. The one-piece build also makes for quick cleaning between different ingredients. Keep the edge performing with Global sharpening stones made for Cromova 18 steel.
