Global G-8 Filleting Knife 22 cm

Description

Controlled flexibility defines the Global G-8, a 22 cm filleting knife designed to follow the natural contours of fish and meat with surgical precision. Where other knives meet resistance, the G-8 flows, adapting to bones, joints and anatomical curves, extracting every gram of protein without waste.
Its thin blade, just 2 mm at the spine, generates exactly the right elasticity to work whole sea bass or bone chicken thighs without losing control. The Cromova 18 steel, specifically treated for this model, holds 56-58 HRC even under constant flexing. The 155 g total weight makes delicate manoeuvres easier for hours on end. A KAI wooden magnetic bar safely stores several filleting knives without warping the blades.

Why do professionals choose the Global G8 filleting knife?

Professional fishmongers and butchers value how the sharp tip penetrates cleanly under the skin while the flexibility allows perfect fillets to be separated without breaking the flesh. In fact, the 22 cm length reaches from head to tail of medium-sized pieces in a single fluid movement, preserving the integrity of the fillet.
In addition, the hermetically sealed handle withstands frequent immersion in salt water without rusting. The engraved dots provide a secure grip even with protective gloves. However, keeping the ultra-fine edge sharp requires specific technique: the combined Global 240/1000 stones progressively restore the bevel without reducing flexibility.
