Global G-2 8-Inch 20cm Cook's Knife Review

Global G-2 8-Inch 20cm Cook's Knife
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is one of the first global knives I bought. I loved it the first time I held it in my hands. What impressed me most was the perfect balance, the lightweight, and the sharpness. However, what may be perfect for me may not be perfect for you. I'd recommend anyone who is shopping for cutlery to go to a store and try how the knife feels in your hands before buying. And if you can borrow from a friend to try, that's even better.
Having used this knife for several years now, my initial impressions haven't changed. This is still my favorite knife for most tasks. I maintain it regularly with a steel and it is as sharp as it ever was. I have found though that for certain tasks like cutting slits into an onion for dicing or cutting root vegetables, I do prefer a heavier knife (that's why I bought another forged global knife), but that is just personal preference. All in all, a great general purpose kitchen knife.

This 8-in. all-purpose Chef's Knife is Global's most popular knife.Your top choice for slicing large quantities of vegetables, fruit and meat quickly and effectively.Loved by professional chefs around the world, Global knives are an excellent choice for the serious home cook.The thin and razor sharp Global blade allows the cook to cleanly slice through foods, preserving the integrity of the ingredient and maximizing its flavor.The majority of Global knives are ground to a straight point rather than the western style of beveling the edge. To balance their knives Global uses a hollow handle that is filled with just the right amount of sand to create the correct balance. The handle has its own unique darkened dimples for a non-slip grip.Because the knives are very light weight they reduce hand fatigue.Global knives have a smooth contour and seamless, all stainless construction that eliminates food and dirt traps.Global knifes are forged in Japan from CROMOVA 18 Stainless Steel, a blend of 18 percent chromium for good stain resistance plus molybdenum and vanadium which gives excellent edge retention.

Tupperware Thatsa Bowl 32 Cup Mixing Bowl Review

I saw the picture of the 32 cup bowl and wanted to get it as I DO use the larger bowls for baking needs. BUT the picture shows the bowl with lid and measuring cups on it. The description ofcourse does not list anything about the measuring cups, but with them in the picture, I thought that they were a "perk" when buying this bowl. I have purchased products in the past where you did receive added bonuses with your purchase. This is NOT the case here. If you buy this bowl, DO NOT LOOK for the items shown in the picture other than the bowl and lid itself. Why the measuring cups are in the picture is beyond me. The product itself is wonderful and I LOVE it. I own both the 42 and 32 cup bowls and use them for baking projects of specialty breads and large receipes. They are durable and not short on stability when mixing. Good thick and sturdy bowls. You will NOT be disappointed when purchasing this item. Will last you for many decades. No kidding! The last bowl of this size that was purchased in my family was back in the 60's when my mother bought her large yellow bowl from Tupperware. That bowl was lost with all our moving around over the past ten years. I finally broke down and bought this cause I missed not having it to use when baking. Now I will have this to pass on to my girls. That is how long they last!!

Pomaireware Clay Oval Baking Dish with Lid Review

Lid was a very different color from the bottom and the lid and bottom together did not in any way, shape, fashion or form, come close to even a reasonable fit.
