Global 3 1/2 inch Paring Knife - Lightweight Japanese Stainless Steel, Razor-Sharp Edge, Made in Japan, GS-38

I recently added a Global knife to my kitchen arsenal, and it has quickly become my go-to tool for a variety of cutting tasks.

It feels well-balanced and robust, promising longevity and consistent performance. The seamless design between the blade and handle adds to its durability and ease of cleaning. Pros: • Extremely sharp blade. • Comfortable and secure grip. • High-quality build and durability. • Well-balanced and easy to handle. Cons: • None that I have encountered. Overall, the Global knife is a fantastic addition to any kitchen. Its sharpness, comfortable grip, and excellent build quality make it a highly reliable and enjoyable tool for both professional chefs and home cooks. Highly recommended!

Global knives, when dropped on a stone floor, may snap in two. This must occur frequently because it is specifically called out in the warranty. Because this paring knife is absolutely required by anyone who cooks dinner each night, it was on sale and painless to replace when I dropped mine. I was introduced to Global knives when Anthony Bourdain commented on his Global Chef's knife in a book. This paring knife holds a sharp edge, helps with slicing and peeling. It is especially a good fit for a small hand.

No other knife needed, except this and the global chef’s knife. They are nice and sharp, well weighted, easy to sharpen and clean.

Typical global quality.

Love Global knives. This was an addition to my set. Well balanced, blade retains sharpness. This is my go to brand.

Sharp and comfortable to use. A nifty little knife.

Global 3.5" Paring Knife (GS-38): I didn't look at the item page closely enough and was surprised when the knife arrived and the handle wasn't straight like all of my other Globals. I was going to return it but then saw that there are YT videos, specifically about this knife. After watching them I decided to keep it in case I need to give a quick gift. In the meantime I bought a (GSF-15) 3" to be my primary paring knife. Both knives look & feel great in-hand.

Not very big, but it is a paring knife and very sharp

C'est un outil qui m'est devenu indispensable ! Ce couteau est d'un tranchant que je n'avais jamais connu. Il faut faire très attention car la pointe ou le côté pointu de la lame situé près du manche percent la peau des mains avec une facilité déconcertante. Le produit est très cher, c'est incontestable. Mais je pense que la qualité est au rendez-vous. Je m'en sers actuellement pour découper des canards gras et l'exercice n'a plus rien à voir avec ce que je faisais avec mes anciens couteaux.

Ist schon der Nachkauf weil mir eines leider abhanden gekommen ist. Liegt gut in der Hand. Ist sehr scharf und hat genau die richtige Größe um vielfältig eingesetzt zu werden. Ist jeden Cent wert, auch wenn es in der Anschaffung etwas teurer ist.

Like all good Global knives, this knife is light and super sharp and is great for all peeling and cutting small items. A "must have" in the kitchen, it gets used every day.

Pequeño y afilado para cortar vegetales y pequeñas piezas de carne.La pega es el precio que es demasiado caro pero la calidad del acero japones y el filo hay que pagarlos

Excellent. Don’t know why I tolerated anything else.
