Their prestige in the professional kitchen is only matched by Wusthof, a German manufacturer. While advertised as a vegetable chopper, the GS-5 is quite handy and nimble for use as an all purpose knife, trimming meat, breaking down caracasses etc. although I wouldn't recommend using it to try and cut through small bones, as the edge is quite fine. Due to its finer edge, Sharpening this knife without whetstones would require something like globals own GS-440SS Ceramic Water sharpener, or the MinoSharp Plus 3. These products are set to the required degree for easy home sharpening. Personally, if budget allows I would recommend opting for The Global G-5, an 18cm Blade (https://www.desertcart.co.uk/G5-Global-Vegetable-Chopper-18cm/dp/B00005OL46) or the Global G-81, also an 18cm Blade (https://www.desertcart.co.uk/global-G81-Ancien-Code-vegetable-fluted-knife/dp/B00U5VK2MU) Review: super sharp! - this is my first quality knife, and i couldn't believe how sharp it is. you have to concentrate like nothing else. it does make life a whole lot easier though, and cuts through veggies like they are soft butter. got mine from Giltsharp, and delivery was quick, so no complaints there. i'm going to have to get a different shape knife though, as this one doesn't have much of a point on it, which i find i miss occasionally, but that doesn't take anything away from the GS-5, I chose that design for a reason. just got to decide which one to get next! probably the G2 or G58 ## Features - MADE IN JAPAN: Crafted in Japan from high carbon stainless-steel, GLOBAL knives are extremely durable, rust-resistant blades which makes them the best kitchen knives - ULTRA SHARP BLADE: GLOBAL’s unique convex, 15-degree cutting edge results in a dramatically sharper cook's knife that stays sharper for longer - ERGONOMIC DESIGN: Crafted with hollow handles filled with sand to perfectly balance the weight of the blade - GLOBAL knives are comfortable and easy to use - HYGIENIC CONSTRUCTION: The one-piece stainless-steel construction eliminates dirt traps for easy knife cleaning and hygienic home and professional kitchens - VEGETABLE KNIFE: The flat edge created straight cuts through vegetables without crushing them, preserving their shape and freshness for faster, more precise and more enjoyable vegetable preparation - KNIFE CARE: Hand wash only and dry immediately.

They cut cleanly without crushing or sawing. It takes less effort to produce a more precise result. The thing to bear in mind is, if you are buying or giving a first Japanese blade, that they require additional outlay for ceramic sharpeners: Shinkansen 'Water' Sharpener - Black and Red or Global Ceramic Medium Whetstone Orange - keep your knives sharp and in good condition or Global G-25: 24cm Ceramic Sharpening Steel ## Frequently Bought Together - Global 5.5" Vegetable Knife - Global 3.5" Paring Knife - Global 8" Chef's Knife --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/48303273-gs-5-vegetable-chopper-cromova-18-stainless-steel-14cm-blade](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/48303273-gs-5-vegetable-chopper-cromova-18-stainless-steel-14cm-blade) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
