Glestain knives are easily recognizable due to their distinctive design and styling, which is unlike other ‘ordinary’ knives: The unique rectangular-shaped dimples that are ground in to one side of the blade, the pleasant balance and weight of the knife and the secure grip provided by the comfortable handles.
The blade of Glestain knife is made from a special stainless steel called ACUTO440 (HRc. 59) and features unique dimples, which provide extra cutting performance and reduce the likelihood of food sticking to the blade.
This knife has comfortable black pakka wood handle and a stainless steel bolster, which provides good blade balance and a fine grip.
