Yep, I just don't understand the logic behind Globals.... the alloy balance is just plain stupid. 18% chrome guarantees you excellent corrosion resistance but no toughness and mediocre hardness. They're a triumph of marketing over science. Probably one of the worst mass marketed Japanese knives ever produced pretending to be a quality product... The Bose of knives.
