Global SAI knives are an upgrade on the traditional Global Classic knife ranges and feature a 3 ply design. The ultra hard central layer provides the cutting edge and is sandwiched between two outer layers to provide extra strength and corrosion resistance. Each blade has an individually hammered pattern design on the blades, whilst the handle features seven dots to represent the seven noble virtues of the Samurai?s code of honour (Integrity, Courage, Compassion, Respect, Honesty, Honour and Loyalty).
