Global G-81 Hollow-Edge Nakiri Knife 18 cm

Description

The Global G-81 combines the distinctive rectangular shape of the nakiri with the non-stick hollow-edge innovation of Global. Its 18 cm wide, rectangular blade provides a larger cutting surface for vegetables, while the dimples help wet, sticky produce release naturally as you work. In short, this fusion of nakiri design and Western technology creates a versatile tool for intensive vegetable prep.

Forged in Cromova 18 steel with a 56-58 HRC hardness, it holds a lasting edge through long chopping sessions. The calibrated dimples are especially helpful with tricky ingredients such as potatoes, damp carrots or courgettes that tend to cling to ordinary knives. Its balanced 190 g weight, achieved with weighted sand inside the handle, delivers stability and control during extended prep without excessive fatigue.

Why choose the hollow-edge Global G-81 nakiri?

Cooks who process large volumes of vegetables value the unique blend of a rectangular nakiri profile with a Western curved edge and hollow-edge technology. First, the wide 18 cm blade offers more surface to move chopped ingredients straight into bowls. Then, the dimples keep cuts flowing even with produce that releases moisture or starch while being processed.

The generous blade height protects your knuckles while making the claw grip easy for safe, fast cuts. The rectangular design also makes the most of standard cutting boards without wasting space. Keep the non-stick performance with Global sharpening stones that protect both the edge and the dimples.
