Global knife care?

Proper care helps keep Global knives in good condition for longer. The safest approach is to wash them by hand with warm water and mild soap, then dry them straight away. Leaving any kitchen knife wet or putting it through a dishwasher can increase the chance of damage over time.

Storage is also important. Keep the blade protected in a knife block, on a magnetic strip, or in a sheath so it does not rub against other utensils. This helps preserve the edge and reduces accidental nicks. When the knife begins to feel less sharp, regular sharpening can restore cutting performance, while honing can help maintain alignment between sharpenings.

It is also a good idea to use the right cutting surface. A wooden or plastic board is usually gentler on the blade than glass, stone, or metal. With consistent care, your knife can stay more comfortable and effective for everyday food prep.
