Global SAI-M06 Vegetable Knife 15cm

Compact Control for Everyday Vegetable Preparation.The Global SAI-M06 Vegetable Knife is the more compact of the two vegetable knives in the premium Global SAI collection, offering outstanding control for everyday chopping, slicing and dicing. Inspired by the traditional Japanese Usuba, its 15cm blade is perfectly sized for home cooks who prefer a more agile knife while still enjoying the clean, efficient cutting performance of a specialist vegetable blade.The blade features a broad, mostly flat cutting edge that allows the entire length of the knife to contact the chopping board for clean, complete cuts through vegetables and fruit. Towards the tip, the blade gently curves to encourage a natural rocking motion, making repetitive chopping comfortable and efficient while maintaining excellent cutting technique. Comparable in size to the popular Global G-5 Vegetable Knife, the SAI-M06 offers the perfect balance of manoeuvrability and performance.Designed by renowned industrial designer Komin Yamada, the Global SAI collection represents the pinnacle of Globals Japanese craftsmanship. Each blade features an advanced three-layer construction with a hard CROMOVA 18 SANSO stainless steel core protected by softer SUS410 stainless steel outer layers, providing exceptional edge retention, durability and corrosion resistance. Finished with a hand mirror-polished 12.5-degree cutting edge, a hand-hammered finish that helps reduce food sticking, and an ergonomic hollow handle with integrated thumb rest, the SAI-M06 delivers outstanding comfort and precision for every preparation task.Features:Premium Japanese vegetable knife inspired by the traditional UsubaIdeal for chopping, slicing, dicing and shredding vegetables and fruitCompact 15cm blade offers excellent control for everyday food preparationBroad, flat blade profile provides clean, complete cuts with full board contactGently curved front section encourages a smooth rocking cutting motionComparable in size to the popular Global G-5 Vegetable KnifeThree-layer blade construction with a CROMOVA 18 SANSO stainless steel core and SUS410 outer layersHand mirror-polished 12.5-degree cutting edge for exceptional sharpness and edge retentionRockwell hardness: C58-C59Hand-hammered blade finish creates air pockets to help reduce food stickingPrecision convex edge delivers smooth, effortless cutting performanceResistant to rust, stains and corrosionErgonomic hollow stainless steel handle with integrated thumb restSand-filled handle provides optimum balance and controlSeven signature black handle dots symbolise the Samurai code of honourSeamless hygienic construction eliminates food and dirt trapsBlade length: 15cmHandcrafted in JapanFrom finely slicing herbs to preparing vegetables for family meals, the Global SAI-M06 Vegetable Knife delivers the precision, comfort and premium Japanese craftsmanship to make every cut effortless.From knife construction and testing to the story of Global, all the way to the comparisons between each series of knives, visit our in-depthGuide to Globalto learn everything you need to know before buying!Find all information on how to clean, wash, store and sharpen your Global knivesHERE.Shop the Global Sai CollectionHERE.
