Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Global GS-10 - 5 1/2 inch, 14cm Cheese Knife
Customer Review: Our favourite cheese knife
Summary: 5 Stars
The idea of a cheese knife with "holes" in the blade is to reduce the friction as one slices cheese, thus ensuring consistant slices, without the cheese crumbling or falling apart. This Global knife delivers admirabley to the task. Indeed, the design best fits hard cheeses, and Global have (imho) the best knife for this, period. Our old "stamped" knife bends and is awkward (dangerous) on hard cheeses.
For soft cheeses, this may not be the best knife, probably a knife such as one would use for pate would be best. But, it is the penultimate for soft cheeses, and the best all round cheese knife my wife and I have ever experienced. We never regret the purchase.
Customer Review: The best solution
Summary: 5 Stars
Global knives have very thin, stiff blades. They also have comfortable grips that never slip in your hand and give you the proper leverage for each job. Although they are expensive, you will never replace them. This cheese knife is excellent for cutting thin slices from hard and medium cheeses. The cutout blade minimizes friction to that you don't have to repeatedly wet the blade, as you would with a conventional knife. Despite the cutout design, the blade is very stiff. Once you have this knife, you will never have to buy another (disappointing) cheese-slicing gadget. (For soft cheeses, you just need a spreader.)
