Global G2 8" Chef's Knife & Ceramic Water Sharpener 2pc Set (71G220BR)

This 2 piece set from Global includes the G Series G2 8" Chef's Knife and the 2 Stage Ceramic Water Sharpener. The Global G2 8" Chef's Knife (71G2) is constructed with a single piece of CROMOVA 18 Stainless Steel, a proprietary material exclusive to the company. With it, they are able to create an ultra-durable, double-sided edge that is ice tempered and hardened to a 56 - 58 Rockwell hardness, allowing the blade to remain sharp for much longer under normal use. The hollow, sand-filled handles, allow each knife to be balanced with extraordinary precision, and the seamless transition from handle to blade not only makes the knife comfortable to hold, but it also prevents food from getting trapped during a good hand washing, which is recommended, since dishwashers can harm this beautiful knife. Use the two-stage, handheld ceramic water stone sharpener for a complete sharpening process. The first stage of sharpening, use the white coarse wheel to sharpen dull and chipped edges. The second stage, use the pink medium-grit wheel for standard sharpening and polishing the blade edges. Safe and easy-to-use knife sharpener for any kitchen.
