Bunmei knives are authentic Japanese kitchen knives using high-carbon, molybdenum and vanadium high-grade stainless steel that guarantee excellent cutting retention. They have the same quality, but are built with a 'HONKI' wooden handle. Bunmei are traditional Japanese knives, still widely used by Japanese cooks. They are all sharp on one side only. Thanks to the 'sanding' of the blade that makes the blade satin, the foods create less friction to the blade and break off more easily. The Deba knife is the traditional stable and heavy Japanese ax with a resistant and wide blade, the front part of the blade is used for precision cuts while the back is used by "blow" to break small bones and / or fish bones. Hardness of steel HRC 56-57 Blade thickness 4.75 mm. Made in Japan Delivery time: 5 days

Who are Global knives suitable for?
They are ideal for those seeking lightness, manoeuvrability and precision, both in professional kitchens and advanced home use.
Santoku or Gyuto: which should you choose?
The santoku is compact and versatile for everyday use; the gyuto is closer to a classic chef’s knife and is ideal for long cuts and sustained work.
What type of maintenance do they require?
Hand washing, immediate drying and regular sharpening are recommended. Avoiding aggressive tools and unsuitable surfaces helps preserve the edge longer.
Are Japanese knives more delicate?
Yes, they often require more care: they are not suitable for bones, frozen foods or twisting, but offer superior cutting performance when used correctly.
Which models are considered essential?
A main knife (chef or gyuto), a paring knife and a serrated bread knife cover most kitchen needs.
How do you properly sharpen a Japanese knife?
Whetstone sharpening is ideal: a medium grit for maintenance and a finer grit for finishing, adapting the choice to the steel and usage.
