7" Vegetable Knife

I have had all of the favorite kitchen knives over the years, old German carbon steal, new German stainless, and even a few rather nice Japanese Nakiri knives of the same price as the Global. Really, I feel like my life in the kitchen has been wasted all of those years since I brought this knife into my life. It is the only knife I use now. It's ergonomics allow for the finest garlic to boning out a chicken, and everything in between. It makes prepping feel like sculpting, and never a chore just to get food on the table after a long day at work. The edge keeps beautifully, the balance and weight is perfect, and tall blade almost gives it a cleaver feel. Thank God my kids are finishing college and I can give them all of my old knives, and my home kitchen can simply have the best.....

I saw the Pioneer Woman using a vegetable knife and decided to purchase one as my wife is constantly cutting up fruit and vegetables. I'm a big fan of Global steel & knives, so I purchased this off of Amazon. Out of the box this knife is extremely sharp. I sliced a tomato with it and there was 0% tearing of the tomato skin. Good handle and ergonomics, easy to see why this type of knife has become so popular. This has become my wife's go-to knife. I have some older Global knives and noticed that the G-5-7 Vegetable Knife isn't as thick. I'd estimate its about 20% thinner than my old Global 6" chef knife and 8" carving knife. Steel is still best in class IMO. I know from experience that this type of steel holds and edge extremely well, and also can be re-sharpened quickly with good results. I wouldn't recommend putting this in the dishwasher as that dulls the edge. Clean-up is quick and easy with this type of steel too. I still feel that Global makes the best kitchen knives, and these are good investments.

I've been using a Global Santoku for 15 years. And I adore it. I cook a lot of Asian-style dishes, and wanted to try a different knife for all the veggies that I chop each week. Tried a few $40-range nakiri's and did not like the feel of them in my hand. So, I splurged and got this knife. I'm loving it so much, I think my Santoku's a little jealous! I used a Wustof Classic Santoku prior to my Global, I also had a Shun chef's knife, but used the Global all the time! I have small hands, and the Global knives fit my hands super well. I know a lot of people are not into the dimpling on the handle, but I like the feel of it. I prefer the balance of Globals to other knives. And feel like my Global knives stay sharper longer than other knives. I appreciate this as I do a lot of cooking (former personal chef, I just wrote a cookbook, etc.)

I've owned this knife for almost seven years. For the majority of that time I've been a sous chef at a high end French bistro. I've been a knife skills instructor for culinary students, as well as a restaurant consultant. I've brought this knife to work every single day and it has seen countless food items, meat, chicken, fish, vegetables, fruits, you name it. This is always the first knife I reach for. I would rank this as one of the best mass produced professional kitchen knives of all time. It is a pure joy to use. It's a durable workhorse that holds an edge for as long as any knife I've tried. I put a sharper angle on the blade than came factory and if you have the skills to hand sharpen this to sub 10°, it's well worth it. It will keep the edge. The only downside of this knife is that you will not be able to efficiently work around bones that are in meat you'd like to save a whole cut. Overall an 10/10. Give it a try if you're on the fence.

Having grown tired of knives that wont cut cleanly thru vegetables, specifically tomatoes, I decided to upgrade. The Global 7" knife seemed to get good reviews and was in my price range. I am so glad i did! The knife cuts cleanly thru tomatoes with very little effort. The metal feels good in my hand and is balanced well overall. Couldn't be happier and wish i had bought this years ago!

legendary vegetable knife. All time favorite.

The design of this knife is perfect for slicing and chopping vegetables and fruits like melons.. Very sharp and makes quick work of halving a large onion or dicing squash. Those who are used to a pointed chef's knife may find it a bit awkward at first but I find a pointed knife does not work as well as this one. The squared off end makes it easy to use both hands if necessary to attack a particularly hard vegetable with ease

I gave this knife a good workout the day after receiving it. I cut up various types of lettuce, carrots, peppers, celery, cucumber and a red cabbage. It worked so well for all of them. The knife is very comfortable in hand. I am a 74 year old female. The balance point is just where it should be. The handle is super comfortable. I highly recommend this knife. I first saw Dillon from Well Your World using it so decided to give it a try.

Sharp, wonderful ergonomics, unparalleled at this price point！

Casi con un año de uso nada que decir que es un cuchillo bueno Fácil de usar

Un couteau tranchant comme une lame de rasoir (il passe au la main le teste de la feuille de papier), aucun problème de finition, et un entretien simple. Concernant ce modèle, inspiré du Nakiri japonais, il permet en effet de couper rapidement les légumes (du fait de son tranchant et de la hauteur de la lame), tout en permettant des tranches beaucoup plus fines qu'avec un hachoir chinois, du fait de la finesse de la lame. Attention cependant à ne pas l'utiliser pour couper une viande avec des os, il n'est pas fait pour ça.

...ein perfektes Messer! Als Betriebsleiter in einem großen Gastronomiebetrieb lege ich nicht nur im Beruf sondern auch im Privatem wert auf ein ausgewogenes VerhÃ'ltnis von QualitÃ't und Preis. Nachdem unsere Köche unbedingt Global Messer fÃ'r den Betrieb nutzen wollten und diese dann auch bekamen, konnte ich mich bereits dort vpn der ausserordentlichen QualitÃ't und Langlebigkeit der Messer Ã'berzeugen. Sie sind nun im Betrieb seit 2 Jahren im Dauerbetrieb und funktionieren immer noch Einwandfrei. (Man muss hier natÃ'rlich hinzufÃ'gen: funktionieren einwandfrei, weil sie ordentlich gepflegt werden, d.h. regelmÃ'ßig geschliffen, nie in die SpÃ'lmaschine..usw.) Auf Grund dieser Erfahrung nutze ich die Messer nun auch privat und sie Ã'berzeugen. Neben dem G-5 habe ich privat noch das G-2 und GSF-15. Sie liegen auf Grund der Gewichtsverteilung perfekt in der Hand und schneiden wirklich sehr, sehr gut. Dies fÃ'hrt jedoch zu einer Warnung meinerseits an unerfahrene Hobbyköche. Die Messer sind Profimesser, sie sind wirklich sehr scharf. Wer also nicht weiß, wie er sach- und fachgerecht mit so einem Messer umgehen kann und muss, sollte eher zu einem anderen Messerfabrikat greifen. Evtl. Zwilling mit breiterem Schaft und Klinge. Man kann sich wirklich sehr schnell mit diesem Messer schneiden und das endet auf Grund der SchÃ'rfe mehr als unangenehm. Zu dem oben genannten Punkt QualitÃ't-PreisverhÃ'ltnis: Wenn ich das Messer mit anderen Messern namhaften Messerproduzenten vergleiche, ist das Preis-QualitÃ'tsverhÃ'ltnis hier mehr als gut. Mehr muss man dazu gar nicht sagen!

Non è iconico come il G2, ed è anche piuttosto pesante: tuttavia tutti i coltelli della linea G sono prodotti eccezionali per capacità di utilizzo, mantenimento del filo e soprattutto design. Questo mancava alla mia "collezione".
