My girlfriend’s dad bought me a set of Global knives for my 40th. I then went on that evening to cut the tip of my finger and the corner of my nail off. Didn’t feel a thing though, great knives.

Cons

  • Not preferred over victorinox fibrox by commenter
  • Gourmet series is stamped

Wusthof is already a “nice” brand. Other than their Gourmet series, which are stamped knives, all of their other knives are forged.
