Product Description
The Global G-525/NB is a five-piece knife set from the Global Classic collection, supplied with a stainless steel knife block. The set comprises a fluted chef knife, a fluted vegetable knife, a fluted cook's knife, a utility knife, and a peeling knife — covering the core tasks found in most professional kitchen prep environments. The block stores all five knives securely and keeps them immediately accessible at the workstation.
Global knives are manufactured in Japan from CROMOVA 18 stainless steel, which holds an edge well under regular commercial use. The hollow handle design, filled with sand to achieve balance, is a long-established feature of the Global range and is familiar to many professional cooks. The fluted blades on several knives in this set help reduce drag and surface adhesion when slicing.
In a working kitchen context, this set is well suited to a dedicated prep station where a chef needs a reliable range of blade profiles to hand without reaching for multiple storage solutions. Practical considerations include:
- Consistent blade steel across all five knives simplifies sharpening and maintenance routines
- The stainless steel block avoids the hygiene concerns associated with wooden block storage
- Lightweight construction reduces fatigue during extended prep sessions
- The included block keeps the knives organised and safely stored when not in use
This set is best suited to professional kitchens, culinary training environments, and catering operations where a balanced everyday prep kit is needed. It is not designed for heavy-duty butchery or high-volume production tasks that would typically call for specialist blades. Global offer a wider range of individual knives and larger sets for kitchens with more specific or extensive requirements.
If you are unsure whether this set covers your kitchen's prep requirements or would like guidance on building a more tailored selection, we are happy to help you work through the options.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The Global Classic range is a well-established choice in professional kitchens and culinary training settings. The five knives in this set cover everyday prep tasks reliably, though kitchens with high-volume production or specialist butchery requirements may need to supplement the set with additional dedicated blades.
- Global recommend hand washing and drying rather than dishwasher use, which can degrade the edge and finish over time. The CROMOVA 18 steel responds well to regular honing with a suitable ceramic or steel rod, and professional sharpening as needed will maintain performance through heavy daily use.
- The stainless steel block is a more hygienic option than traditional wooden knife blocks, as it does not absorb moisture or harbour bacteria in the same way. That said, knife storage requirements can vary depending on your local environmental health guidance, so it is worth confirming suitability with your EHO if you are in a regulated environment.
