    I'm a chef of 30 + years and these are great knives ,I've had one for 30 years ,and a few stolen ,by other chefs. And they don't rust ,i wouldn't buy them again though. buy a few individual victorinox to suit your needs.

    Had this set and the knives rusted (washed correctly, never put in the dishwasher) - alternatives?

    They’ve got a set of Wusthof knives for sale, without a block though.

    Had ours at a guess over 20 years, 7 of them, they have no sign of rust, no cracks, no damage and keep a good edge when they do need sharpening. Hand washed only.
    As a sharpener, I use Lansky sharpening rods and block at either 20 or 25 degrees depending on which knife I’m sharpening.

    Just looked on their website out of curiosity, they factory sharpen their knives between 10-15 degrees, I also have a lansky, have been thinking of upgrading to a KME recently though, not that these will need sharpening for a while but I think the lansky lowest is 17 degrees.

    How many different knives do folks genuinely use prepping food? I cook and prep meat quite a lot, but I can quite happily get by on a chefs knife and a paring knife. I actually prefer a chefs knife for bread, buns, bagels, croissants Etc as is much less messy. Yes I have a cleaver and filleting knife, but I am thinking day to day? For honing I have a steel and for sharpening I use two sections of Oak flooring, one with a leather section/strop affixed and one with 1/3rd sheets of 600 and 1200 wet an dry double sided on and swapped out as required.

    A fluted chef's knife would be my only likely future purchase . When it comes to guided sharpening, unless you have deep pockets and want to go down the rabbit hole that is knife sharpening, the Work Sharp system plus a strop is from what I read in forums, generally accepted to be the sub £100 weapon of choice for the home cook. Beyond that there are systems from Sharpworks, Worxsharp, Edge Pro, EZESharp, Tormek, Wicked Edge, TSPROF, Etc. Et. to suit everyone from the home chef to the knife sharpening service provider.

    Pretty rubbish knives.
    Brittle and prone to breaking, steel is poor quality (have a research)

    I’ve got eight of them and haven’t had problems with any of them.  So what is your experience of them?

    I’ve always found global uncomfortable to use, the action just isn’t as good as a Zwilling or a Mercer - I prefer a heavy handle to balance out the steel. Global give me blisters. Chef of 30 years. (edited)

    Global knives are excellent and one of the best. Been using my set professionally and at home for over 15 years without issues. If they rust there fake or through lack of use. Even marine grade stainless will rust on the surface without use.

    One of the best high street big name brands but definitely not one of the best overall as Global use entry level Japanese steel

    5% off even without BLC, if it is your first order. I've posted a picture of the discount in one of my comments. I think I'm happy with my Zwilling set which was half this price. (edited)

    My partner has a full set on the global magnetic wall holder. Really easy to access for use, no complaints here.

    I have this set, my 8cm knife has failed twice at the neck. Total snap, costs £18.95 to replace each time.
    Overall they are ok knifes, I do however prefer the feel to my previous Wusthof knifes. Will be going back to them after these have run their course.


    As a warning, UK based customer service is dreadful when dealing with a return.

    Where the hell do they get an RRP of £699.99. Global themselves have them listed at £324.95

    Bought this set 23 years ago. Still using them but had to replace the larger chef's knife last year when it cracked between the grip and blade.

    Most chefs would only use two of these knives, I would say save yourself a hundred quid and get a Wusthof Ikon chef's and paring knife. Solingen steel (edited)
    mark9915's avatar
    mark9915
    Where are you getting Wusthof Ikon’s for that kind of money?  20cm cooks knife is £150+ if you can find one.

    Really good price. I have 3 knives and a steel. Bought separately though. Paid around £500 for them, individually.

    I’ve got Global knives, but I use a Victorinox tomato knife for 90% of my cooking.
