The Global Classic 18cm Cook's Knife GS-98 is an all-purpose board knife for chopping, slicing and dicing meat, vegetables and herbs.

Key Features

  • 18 cm blade sized for daily vegetable, herb and protein preparation
  • Fine straight edge
  • Seamless all-stainless-steel construction with a hollow, precisely balanced handle
  • CROMOVA 18 stainless steel hardened to 56–58 HRC
  • Signature dimpled stainless-steel handle
  • Made in Niigata, Japan

Why Choose This Product

Choose this as the knife that will perform most daily preparation. It offers more board clearance and cutting reach than a utility knife while remaining considerably more agile than a cleaver. Its medium format is the most versatile balance of reach, control and board clearance for most cooks. Within the Classic range, this model stands out for the unmistakable Global design: light, agile and hygienic, with no handle joints and a crisp Japanese-style edge.
Simply Hospitality Notes

Choose blade size by board space and prep volume, not by prestige. A comfortable pinch grip and enough knuckle clearance matter more in daily use than simply buying the longest blade.

Product Guide

Use a pinch grip at the heel of the blade and work on a stable board. Rock through herbs and rounded vegetables, or use controlled forward slices for proteins; do not scrape the sharp edge sideways across the board.

Brand Guide

About Global: Global knives are made in Niigata, Japan and are recognised for seamless stainless-steel construction, CROMOVA 18 blade steel and distinctive dimpled handles. The range feels lighter and more agile than many traditional Western knives, with hygienic construction and acute edges that reward careful hand washing and appropriate sharpening.

Product Details

Its broad blade provides knuckle clearance and supports both rocking and straight slicing, making it the natural centrepiece of a working knife kit. The Classic specification pairs seamless all-stainless-steel construction with a hollow, precisely balanced handle to shape balance, durability and maintenance in daily use.
