Global Ni Oriental Fluted Vegetable Knife – 14cm (GNM-01)

This 14cm Fluted Vegetable Knife is inspired by traditional Japanese Usuba knives, popular amongst professional chefs in Japan as a specialist vegetable knife. The fluted blade works exceptionally well with this blade shape as it creates an air pocket between the blades face and food which prevents sticking.

The Ni collection has everything you would expect from Global; razor sharp edges, Cromova 18 stainless steel and our famous perfectly weighted hollow handles. The Ni Collection features thicker blades with slightly longer handles than the Classic collection and a spine that has been slightly rounded to provide control and comfort whilst using a pinch grip.

Global Ni knives all feature an oriental styling, with a distinctive kink in the knife blade. The blades are sharpened at a 15-degree angle, to provide an extremely sharp edge and go through an extra sharpening process in the factory.

Features:

• Smooth contours and seamless construction eliminate food and dirt traps, offering the ultimate in safety and hygiene.
• Perfectly balanced handles precisely calibrated to offset the weight of the blade.

Made in Japan.
