If there was an accompanying fork for that knife I could throw all my other cutlery away.

You could use the end of the knife as a fork!

I've spent far to much on Global knives.

Now up to 7 of them. Cheapest was £30 and the most expensive was well over £100 - I just entered the pin when asked and didn't look at the number.

Love them.

Glad to be of service moddum

They look quite nice to hold actually. Now I've learnt how to hold a knife properly, my current knife hurts my finger.

I bought a similar set a few years ago, clamied to be professional quality and all that but obviously they weren't for the price.

I found them great - because they are all one piece they are easy to clean and I found them very light and easy to hold too.

£8 isn't bad for a set of knives, even if they only last a year.

as this is a knifey kind of thread - what are peoples opinions of these:

good buy? or not such a good buy?
i don't have a lot of 'spare' money - but if these are really worth it, i was thinking of spending my christmas money on them (instead of new clothes...)
at the moment i have richardson knives - will these be an improvement, or will i be wasting my money?

Personally, I wouldn't. I have a thing against Sabatier though.

I'd get 2 good knives. A ~20-23cm one and a slightly smaller one ~12-15cm and an appropriate shapener. Global knives and a Minosharp sharpener are my choice.

They will last a very long time if looked after. Mine are sharpened weekly.
