Global oriental's knife

[mcohen]

I saw this on sale and I was wondering if you can you use this as a chef's knife? The tilt to it seemed a little strange.

It'd make a fine chef's knife. You'll get used to the angle of the blade.

FastTalkingHighTrousers might be correct, But maybe you could check in at the Edge in the Kitchen Q&A, where questions like yours are being answered with aplomb, acumen and expertise.

Are you referring to this knife?

I have one, and absolutely love it.

[Beebs]

That's my knife and I love it! I thought about getting the traditional chef's knife for awhile, but someone gave me the Oriental knife as a gift. I thought the tilt would feel weird at first too, but it's really comfortable now. I would definately buy another Oriental knife!

Yep - have it - love it.

[Grovite]

Adding to the chorus: Love this knife, one of my main "go to" knives.

One other thing about the Global knives is that they are quite a deal lighter than conventional cooks knives and can be less of a strain for long duration chopping tasks.
