Global Knives Ukon 6 Piece Knife Block Set

The Global Ukon 6-piece knife block set brings together a practical selection of blades from Global's Ukon series, housed in a freestanding block with a stainless steel and black finish. The set includes a chef's knife, bread knife, vegetable knife, scalloped utility knife, and paring knife — covering the core tasks found in most professional prep environments. The Cromova 18 stainless steel construction is consistent with Global's wider professional range, with the Ukon series featuring thicker blade stock than Global's standard lines.

In a working kitchen, Global knives are valued for their balance, edge retention, and the consistency of their manufacture. The Ukon blades are well suited to daily prep work across meat, bread, vegetables, and general utility cutting. The thicker blade geometry gives slightly more robustness than thinner Japanese-style profiles, which suits kitchens where knives see sustained use across long service periods rather than delicate precision work alone.

• Covers the main prep knife categories in a single purchase
• Cromova stainless steel holds an edge well under regular professional use
• The block keeps blades accessible and protects edges between use
• The stainless and black finish suits both back-of-house and pass or counter display
• Thicker Ukon blade profile suits versatile, high-frequency prep tasks

The block itself is freestanding and requires counter space. It is not a wall-mounted or magnetic solution, so bench space should be considered in tighter prep areas. At 2.8kg for the complete set, it has enough weight to sit stably on a worktop without risk of tipping during use.

This set is well suited to chef's knives collections, culinary schools, smaller professional kitchens, and establishments where a complete starter set is needed in a single purchase. It also works well where the block will be visible to guests. Kitchens requiring a larger blade selection or specialist knives will find individual additions available within the Ukon range.
