Fantastic knife
Perfect, have been a fan of global knives and bought this as a replacement for one I stupidly broke (my fault entirely)

Sublime.
Working in a kitchen myself (stage), this is a fantastic knife. Using my 8000 grit stones it takes and keeps an edge - with either a gentle stropping or honing once every two days, it lasts fantastically. Clean, crisp cuts with little cell damage - and light enough that it won't tire you out nor require too much force behind it. Perfect balance, for me, at least. No droppages yet - though the welded construction makes me slightly concerned. Still, not enough to stop it being a fantastic knife!

So far have used it a few times and seems to stay sharp for good period of use
Once sharpened properly, it really makes for effortless slicing, cutting and dicing. So far have used it a few times and seems to stay sharp for good period of use. Quite light and the design of the handle might not be to everyone's liking as it is all metal and fairly slim. It suits me fine and find it easy to clean. Would not go back to using "non-premium" knives. Only downside is that the price in the UK is so much higher than in the USA (even on Amazon itself) and the difference is not fully accounted for by tax and duty. I was lucky to pick one up at an attractive spot price from an Amazon marketplace seller.

Global G2 knife
This is great knife. I bought it for my husband who loves cooking and he is really pleased with it. It slices through vegetables, raw meat and cooked meat with ease. It is easily the best knife we have ever used and we have had some good knives in the past. It does however need to be sharpened using the correct type of sharpener so if you are thinking about buying one of these knives then consider getting the sharpener at the same time.

A must to buy
An excellent knife, love it and I bought one a while ago and its with my other knife collection, Wusthof, Henckels, Sabatier and Victorinox, All my knives i use all of time. I do use all of the above knives as I am a chef and I do use each knife most days. Global are one of the best well worth the money but one.

Expensive but good
Purchased based on 'which' review. It maintained its edge longer and better than expectation. The only negative was a very sharp point on the back edge which can be quickly rectified with a stone. Delivery was quicker than expected.

Just wow!
Life-changing knife! I bought a famous German brand two years ago and got frustrated from the knife because it wasn't sharp enough right from the start. This one is amazing! It's extremely sharp and keeps its sharpness for a long period of time. We have sharpened it just once although we have it for several months now.

Japon kalitesi
Tartışılmaz Japon kalitesi. Ömür boy mutfakta işiniz görecek bir bıçak, çok keskin ve bir o kadar bilemesi kolay. Tabii uygun su taşı almanız gerekiyor. Bu kalitede avrupa yapımı bıçak bulmanız çok zor.

Coltello da cucina essenziale, taglia tutto con precisione
Questo Global G2 è diventato il mio coltello preferito in cucina. L'ho comprato quasi un anno fa e francamente non riesco neanche più a immaginare di cucinare senza. La lama è una cosa seria – acciaio giapponese con alto tenore di carbonio, e si vede dalla precisione con cui taglia. Che sia verdure, carne, pesce, pane – tutto scivola via con pochissima fatica. Non è uno di quei coltelli che devi spingere forte per fare un taglio decente. Con questo bastano movimenti leggeri e naturali. È preciso, punto. Quello che mi ha sorpreso è quanto rimane affilato nel tempo. Uso la mia acciaino ogni tanto per mantenerlo, ma la lama sembra quasi indistruttibile. L'acciaio inossidabile lo rende resistente alla ruggine, quindi non devo preoccuparmi anche se ogni tanto dimentico di asciugarlo subito dopo il lavaggio. Il manico in acciaio inossidabile è saldo e bilanciato, non è scivoloso neanche quando le mani sono umide. Tutto l'equilibrio del coltello è pensato bene – non è pesante in testa né in coda, il peso è distribuito perfettamente. Sinceramente è un coltello che può fare praticamente tutto in cucina. Non è uno specializzato, è un tuttofare di qualità. Per questo motivo è diventato il coltello più usato in assoluto nel mio set. Lo uso per affettare, tritare, disossare, tutto. Il prezzo inizialmente mi era sembrato un po' alto, ma considerando quanto lo uso e quanto bene funziona dopo un anno intero, il costo per utilizzo è praticamente nullo. Un investimento che vale davvero. Se cucini spesso e vuoi un coltello affidabile su cui contare, questo Global G2 è difficile che ti deluda.

Scharfe Sache!
Jahrelang hatte ich nur billige Messer aus diversen Messersets in Verwendung. Nie wirklich scharf und wenn man sie mal nachgeschärft hat, dann war das nicht von langer Dauer. Also wollte ich mir mal etwas Gutes gönnen. Auf Empfehlung eines Kochs aus dem Bekanntenkreis habe ich mich letztlich für das Global G-2 entschieden. Das Messer kommt gut verpackt beim Kunden an. Keine edle Holzschatulle wie z.B. bei anderen Mitbewerbern, aber die braucht es auch nicht. Zur Aufbewahrung in der Küche gibt es schließlich Messerblöcke. Das Messer ausgepackt und direkt den Test auf dem Arm gemacht. Absolut Rasiermesserscharf, einfach top! Es liegt für mein Empfinden auch sehr gut und leicht in der Hand. Das ungeliebte Gemüse schnippeln macht damit endlich wieder Spaß. Aber Vorsicht, dass Messer macht nämlich auch vor ungeschickten Fingerkuppen nicht halt. Also besser wegräumen, wenn die Verwandtschaft zu Besuch kommt und in der Küche helfen will. ;-) Wie bei hochwertigen Messern üblich ist die Spülmaschine zur Reinigung tabu. Etwas Spülmittel und ein weicher Lappen reichen aber auch völlig aus. Generell sind die Messer von Global sehr pflegeleicht, eben weil sie komplett aus Edelstahl bestehen. (Damast-)Messer mit Holzgriff benötigen etwas mehr Pflege. Auch das man möglichst Schneidebretter aus Holz oder weichen Kunststoff benutzt sollte selbstverständlich sein. Bitte nicht direkt auf der harten Küchenarbeitsplatte schneiden! Ebenso sollte man das "mit der Messerschneide vom Schneidbrett in den Topf schieben" tunlichst sein lassen. Beides schadet der Schärfe des Messers (aber das gilt generell für alle Messer). Ich besitze das Messer noch nicht so lange, aber bisweilen hat es nichts von seiner Schärfe verloren. Sicher ist es auf den ersten Blick nicht günstig, im direkten Vergleich Preis-Leistungstechnisch aber sehr gut aufgestellt. Wer natürlich Wert auf Ästhetik legt, der ist hier falsch. Es gibt schönere Messer als die von Global, keine Frage. Wer aber gutes Schneidwerkzeug sucht, was einfach das tut was man von einem Messer erwartet, der wird hier definitiv nicht enttäuscht. Von meiner Seite aus 5 Sterne und eine klar Kaufempfehlung. Es wird sicher nicht mein letztes Messer von Global sein. :-)
