Global from I Grunwerg, the knives with razor sharp blades, iconic design and handcrafted with revolutionary Japanese steels, celebrate their 25th Anniversary in 2010 with the launch of an innovative new range which will aid storage and transportation.
With a soft, easy to clean material, the new magnetic blade guards will ensure your blades are safe from scratching, chipping or harm to others when on the move.
Available in 4 sizes (each of which can be easily cut to personalise the case to the individual blade), the hinged design allows for safe insertion and removal of the knife
Described by Alain Roux, the Chef Patron of the 3 Michelin starred Waterside Inn, as “very practical and a very good thing to protect your blades with. Very nice and efficient to use”, the guards are already creating a stir in the housewares industry days after their launch.
Global knives are immensely popular with all levels of chef, and have become synonymous with quality, innovation and style. Many guards in the market are plastic and therefore are not suitable for our knives as they tend to scratch the blade, or cannot be adapted to each knife. Therefore, we developed this range so they can be cut to match most Global knives, are soft enough to care for the knife and are simple to use.
The blade guards can be found in all good cookshops.
