Press Release Autumn 2016

A better blade for tomatoes For more than 30 years, has been part of the modern kitchen, taking a to all manner of produce, regardless of season or food trends. Crisp, vitamin-rich vegetables are always in season – in both the global kitchen and Nordic cuisine – and this calls for another addition to the knife block. A tomato knife with a is now being added to the Global NI knife series. The small, flexible knife cuts through the skin, producing slices of this flavourful veggie-favourite for salads, tomato sauce, chutney and homemade pizza – without causing the seeds to squirt.

Found on the cutting boards of every modern mama and gastro-man several times a week, tomatoes are a classic in most kitchens. In the rush of everyday life. On weekends when there is time for slow food and roasted tomatoes for snacks. And in summer when sun-ripened tomatoes are sliced and served in a deliciously simple sandwich with dark bread, mayo and a sprinkle of chives.

In short, the tomato is one of the key ingredients in cooking, and this calls for the addition of a new knife to the GLOBAL NI series: the tomato knife. Like the other GLOBAL NI , the tomato knife is specially designed for slicing tomatoes and takes its inspiration from the professional kitchen, where time is too short for using the wrong knife and for unnecessary cleaning when chopping, slicing and cooking. The solution is a serrated, flexible knife blade that cuts through the tomato’s tough skin and quickly produces even the thinnest filets by cutting the flesh without squirting juice and seeds all over the kitchen.

The ultimate for the kitchen artisan For more than three decades, pairing produce with the proper knife has been a key ingredient of GLOBAL’s success and cult status – from Asia to Scandinavia. However, ergonomics and hygiene are also important factors, turning GLOBAL knives into intelligent design and making them the ultimate tool for the kitchen artisan. This also applies to the tomato knife, which is made from GLOBAL’s trademark CROMOVA 18 steel and with a handle featuring the Global NI series signature perforated pattern. More than just a decorative detail, the pattern also ensures a light and fresh grip. Moreover, every GLOBAL NI knife is made without a joint between the handle and the blade, so there is no place for dirt and bits of food to collect, keeping the knife clean and bacteria free.

Even though the GLOBAL NI tomato knife is dedicated to the veggie drawer, this autumn’s new release is also ideal for cutting fruit. Soft fruit with ‘tough’ skins, such as kiwis, mangos and peaches, are easily sliced open and cut into perfect wedges with the help of the serrated blade on the tomato knife.

The GLOBAL NI Tomato Knife (L: 12.5 cm) is priced at EUR 109.95 and will be available in stores from September 2016.
