Kitchen Aid Cookware: Global 7-Inch Vegetable Knife Review

This light-weight and stunningly sharp knife is outstanding.As other reviewers of Global knives noted, the exceptionally acute angle of the edge makes them effective at cutting.
The size and balance of this knife are well suited to working with most vegetables, fruit etc.Cuts such as brunoise become much easier to accomplish using this knife.
As a first time user of a Global knife, it took me a few minutes to get used to how light it is.But once I got the feel of it, it became a real favorite.
Take the advice about care and sharpening this knife seriously. You can't just hone it on an average steel.Use the right stone and ceramic steel and you'll avoid ruining the edge.
