Re: Global knives :
ive had a few , and used to hand sharpen using wet stones back then , getting fine edges on all my on all my knives
Global's were difficult for me to sharpen this way . a knife forum suggested the steel was ' sticky '
so I invested in an EdgePro system . edgePro is simply a jig system , that holds the edge angle via the jug
not the operators hand. Globals were now razor sharp .
I think they are fantastic knives when kept razor sharp . but that's a bit of work .
