Blades are made of hard molybdenum/vanadium stainless steel and "face-ground" with a long taper rather than a short bevel so edges remain sharp longer than even the best high-carbon stainless-steel knives. Edges also are ground at a more acute angle than traditional European-style knives and arrive from the factory razor-sharp. Although Globals original knives have thinner blades and are lighter than traditional European-style knives, Global also makes a "heavyweight" line for cooks who prefer hefty cutlery--like this 6-1/4-inch boning knife, whose stiff blade is as thick as a traditional European knifes and ideal for meat and poultry and cutting through joints. Global also dispensed with bolsters on most of its knives, although this knife has one. Most Global knives have hollow handles, but the handle on this knife is solid. Stainless-steel handles are Globals most striking feature. Theyre molded to fit the hand and dimpled to resist slipping. Smaller around than many European-style handles, theyre easy for small-handed cooks to grasp and seamless for sanitation. Global reco´mmends using a ceramic sharpener or a diamond steel instead of a metal sharpening steel for its knives, supplemented by a synthetic whetstone, a ceramic whetstone, or a Shinkansen sharpener. Global also makes a Sharpening Guide Rail so blades can be honed on a whetstone at the proper angle. Global knives should be hand washed to protect edges. They carry a lifetime warranty against defects and breakage. --Fred Brack . . .Read More  Precisely balanced 6-1/4-inch knife with stiff blade for boning meat, poultry  Blade made of high-tech molybdenum/vanadium stainless steel  Edge retains razor sharpness exceptionally well  Stainless-steel handle molded for comfort, dimpled for safe grip  Lifetime warranty against defects and breakage
