Global's Santoku knife is similar to a chef's knife in that it's used for many tasks: mincing herbs, chopping vegetables or slicing fruits. The blade on the Santoku knife is shaped to give you that rocking back-and-forth motion needed for such tasks.

The two most innovative features of Global knives
are their edge and the way they are balanced. The most important
feature of any knife is its edge, and the Global edge is truly its
signature.
The majority of the Global
knives are sharpened or ground on both sides of the blade like western
style knives. However, their edges are ground straight to a point
rather than beveled resulting in a dramatically sharper knife which
stays sharper longer.
The edge is so large and
prominent that it is easily seen with the naked eye and extends a
quarter inch or more up from the tip of the knife.
