## Description

Global Model X Chef's Knife - Made in Japan, 8" (Fine Edge)

Review: A great knife to add to your cutlery collection. - It is a heftier knife than other Global knives. It is holding its edge well and when I sharpen it I may send it out for sharpening or just use their 3 wheel water knife sharpener. I like the heft and the balance and it cuts meat, vegetables, bread, and other various items. I think it is worth the cost, however, I've only owned it for about a month.
Review: 5 out of 5 - Purchased for my son. It's fantastic. The weight is heavier than I thought which makes cutting effortless. Would easily buy again. Holds an edge a lot longer before needing to be sharpened.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is a great knife!
*by J***. on March 20, 2024*

I first bought a good knife when I splurged on a high carbon steel German chef's knife back when I was an undergraduate in the 70s. This new knife replaces my previous Global 8" chef's knife which was very good but not quite right for me. This one is actually heavier than my 9.5" Global chef's knife, which, like my previous 8", has a thinner spine. I keep my Japanese knives sharp with a two stage 15 degree sharpener and with a sharpening steel. They are sharp. But this knife with a thicker spine is not only sharp, it's a joy to use. When Global started marketing in America, their knives would often break because Americans push down while Japanese tend to slice/saw with the knife. So Global reinforced their knives for Americans. This knife, with a 4mm spine that tapers down to 3mm about two inches from the tip takes this Americanizing to a new level. My lighter 9.5" knife has a 2.7mm spine that taper down to 2mm about two inches from the tip. It's a great knife, and so was my previous 8" but this one feels special and is a real joy to use. It took a few days to adjust to the extra weight. The adjustment was well worth while and now I feel spoiled.
