Global Classic Ikasu X Acrylic Knife Block, Set of 10

Our exclusive 10-piece set showcases a full array of Global Classic knives in a striking, space-saving bamboo block. Global's award-winning knives are made to the exacting standards of professional Japanese chefs. Blade edges are ground to a superfine 16-degree angle on each side for remarkably sharp performance and exceptional balance. This set includes nine versatile knives and a bamboo storage block with an acrylic window that displays the blades for quick, easy identification.

• Stamped blades are made of exceptionally hard Cromova 18 high-carbon stainless steel, ice tempered and hardened to resist corrosion.
• Prominent 1/4" edges are visible to the naked eye and ground straight to a point rather than beveled, resulting in superior sharpness and edge retention.
• Stainless-steel handles are seamlessly constructed and textured to provide firm grip.
• Crafted to professional standards, each knife is lightweight yet perfectly balanced.
• Bamboo storage block has clear acrylic window for quick identification of knives.
• A Williams Sonoma exclusive.

Use

• Always use caution when handling sharp objects.
• Avoid cutting on hard surfaces such as stone, metal and glass.
• It is not advisable to use any knife but a meat cleaver to cut through bone or frozen food, as other blades can be easily damaged.

Care

• Hand-wash with warm water and mild detergent. Rinse and dry immediately.
• Use honing steel only when you feel knife has lost some of its original sharpness, usually no sooner than 6 months after its first use. As you continue to use knife, it will require more frequent honing. If you need to hone knife more than once every two weeks, it is time to have it sharpened.
• Sharpen non-serrated knives at home using whetstone or sharpener, or have them sharpened by a professional.
• Sharpen serrated knives with sharpener designed for serrated blades, or have them sharpened by a professional.
• Store each knife in safe place to protect its edge and prevent injury.
