Global 7-Piece SAI Knife Block Set

Legendary industrial designer Komin Yamada brings a new age of innovation to Global cutlery with Sai—individually hand-hammered knives with one-of-a-kind character. Unifying function and design, these distinctive Japanese knives combine revolutionary ergonomic handles with triple-layered steel blades that maintain their exceptionally sharp edges. In this set, we’ve hand-selected six of the most useful knives for everyday cooking and entertaining, along with a companion storage block.

Product Features

• The first new cutlery line produced by Global in more than 30 years, Sai blends the Japanese company’s tradition of craftsmanship with modern technological advancements.
• The knives combine three layers of steel: a core of patented, ultra-hard Cromova 18 Sanso stainless-steel alloy, and two outer layers of more flexible 18/8 steel for added strength and resistance to rust.
• Professional-quality blades are ice-hardened and tempered to increase hardness, resist corrosion, and maintain long-lasting sharpness. Each blade is hand-hammered to create hollow air pockets that reduce drag, allowing the blade to glide through food without sticking.
• The perfectly balanced handle has an ergonomic thumb rest for a smooth, efficient cutting motion and steady, comfortable grip. Iconic dots on the knife’s hollow handle represent seven traditional Japanese virtues from the Samurai code of honor.
