Product Description

Serrated Knives - The Global Sai Bread Knife features a razor-sharp serrated edge that glides through thick sandwiches to artisan breads without tearing the soft interiors. Distinctively hand-hammered with a thin ground blade, the Global bread knife is engineered in the tradition of authentic Japanese cutlery. Handcrafted of triple-layered CROMOVA 18 stainless-steel and 18/8 steel, the acute-edge blade is ice-tempered and hardened to Rockwell C56-58 degrees. Highly-resistant to stains, rust and corrosion, the blade retains its exceptionally-sharp edge longer than traditional stainless-steel knives. Unprecedented in the history of Japanese blade performance, the Global Sai bread knife is carefully weighted to ensure perfect balance. Patterned to precision standards of the Samurai sword originating in Japan, the smooth contour, seamless design exceeds the demands of the most discriminating chefs. The Japanese bread knife includes tip-to-end bolster and the ergonomic trademark-dimpled handle with a thumb rest offers a safe nonslip grip. Global kitchen knives are well-known in culinary circles for exceptional function and design. Precision handmade craftsmanship, unrivaled sharpness and flawless one-piece construction distinguish Global Sai knives as the future generation of superior cutlery.
