Its performance closely matches that of the classic G-2 chef's knife, with the primary difference being aesthetic—the slight kink in the blade. This design element gives the knife an 'oriental' appearance but does not affect its functionality. Contrary to its appearance, the G-4 is not tailored specifically for oriental cuisine or techniques; rather, it offers a different shape compared to traditional chef's knives. Its gently curved blade facilitates a rocking motion while cutting, similar to a mezzaluna on a chopping board.GS-58 | 11cm Cook's Knife - The G-58 knife, measuring 11 cm, is a slightly smaller version of the same knife, featuring the large G series handle. The shorter blade offers better control and may feel less intimidating, especially for those with smaller hands. Regardless of size, all these knives perform the same tasks in the kitchen, making the choice largely a matter of personal preference.GS-110AN | 15cm Kiritsuke Knife - The newest addition to the Global family, is the GS-110, a small 15cm Kiritsuke Knife.
