Review of Global 6-Inch 15 cm Serrated Utility, Scallop Knife

I bought this knife along with a few other Global knives and ended up returning it.This is not to say that this is a bad knife but I found that it was unnecessary alongside the rest of the Global knives I purchased.The non-serrated knifes are so sharp that there were practicaly no instances where I needed to use this knife.I did end-up keeping the 8" serrated bread knife but as long as you have that one, you don't really need another serrated knives.

I like being able to sharpen my knives frequently and this isn't very easy to do with serrated knives.A special tool and technique is required and the whole process is very time consuming.In addition, make sure that you use a ceramic sharpener on all global knives.Its supposed to have a different grit that is better for them.Kyocera (ceramic knife manufacturer) makes one specifically for Global but they are quite expensive.

Product Description
This 8-in. Serrated Utility Knife is ideal for slicing into foods with a thick or tough skin.Great for tomatoes, avocados or small loaves of bread.Loved by professional chefs around the world, Global knives are an excellent choice for the serious home cook.The thin and razor sharp Global blade allows the cook to cleanly slice through foods, preserving the integrity of the ingredient and maximizing its flavor.The majority of Global knives are ground to a straight point rather than the western style of beveling the edge. To balance their knives Global uses a hollow handle that is filled with just the right amount of sand to create the correct balance. The handle has its own unique darkened dimples for a non-slip grip.Because the knives are very light weight they reduce hand fatigue.Global knives have a smooth contour and seamless, all stainless construction that eliminates food and dirt traps.Global knifes are forged in Japan from CROMOVA 18 Stainless Steel, a blend of 18 percent chromium for good stain resistance plus molybdenum and vanadium which gives excellent edge retention.
