Ludo Cuts with GLOBAL Knives: Four Must-Have Knives - Episode 6

Episode 6 of Ludo Cuts with GLOBAL knives features Chef Ludo Lefebvre suggesting the four must-have knives in every kitchen.

[MrDucatiPenigaleVs]

I have a set of Global I keep them razor sharp on my whetstones excellent knives. No need for serrated to cut tomato if you keep your knives razor sharp.

Lot of great points being made here I really can't dispute bread knife

[onedirection]

His box of toys gave me a Dexter flashback! 😂😱

[NTayls]

I'm surprised no one mentioned the 5.5" Vegetable knife! the GS-5... It is a big time favorite for many youtube chefs that I follow - just ordered mine this week as a companion to the G-2 :)

[MarUlberg]

I got a Chef Knife, IMO, unless you're carving pumpkins, you don't need anything else.

Ludo you are so cute and funny. I bought the knives! I hope you get a bonus.

[arcticwanderer]

If I couldn't slice a tomato with my Santoku or Chef knives I would throw them out. Can't see the reason for the serrated knife.

Global have just added a new scalloped blade 14 cm to their huge range ( utility knife ) !

I agree with his top 4

The little parer is great for garlic / ginger prep. But it is So easy to be misplaced. Put IT in a wood block as tends to fall off a magnetic bar sometimes.

These soft steel Japan knives are sharpened gently on a water wet Japanese stone ( not an oiled stone or steel ).

Board : very soft timber is the best.

See kitchen supply shops for same.

Global knives are simply unbeatable for home cooks . Easy to sharpen and very easy to use.

Hygienic : as no joins in handle.

Ideally we want around 4 (or 5 ) to start with depending on your menu planning.

Add a good Vegetable peeler and COOKING scissors to complete your set and ....BON APPETITE 🍽🦞🍹!!!

If you only have one knife, go for the chef knife or the Chinese cleaver otherwise my four knife set would be:
G-29 a beautiful meat and heavy duty knife.
G-41 a file knife, you must be able to prepare the fish right?
G-9 breadknife, must have for does crusted edges of the bread.
G-81 veggi cutter with granton edge.

[dgibraltar]

I disagree with the bread and serrated edge knives. Yes to the Chef's knife and paring knife. If there must be a third, i'd probably go for some type of chopper/cleaver.

[michaelburr]

Also helps to cook with a French accent.

Zee ..col ...ourrr ...is tres magnificent, 🍒 Monsieur ....avec ...flav ...ooourrr BON !

[yocho]

where you buy your knife case? i like it

[KungKokkos]

Yeah.. I have trouble taking knife advice from someone who picks up their knifes from the carrying bag and dumps them on top of eachother on the cutting board, poor edges...

[julienbertrand]

Bonjour j'ai une question, pourquoi le g1 21 cm a t'il une pointe arrondie ? Merci

[jeffreychongsathien]

Should have been Cook, Cleaver, Paring, Bread.

[einundsiebenziger]

Could have stopped after the first three. The bread knife is already serrated and everything else you cut with the chef knife. Other than that, you do not stack knives on top of each other!

[DimiterAngelicheff]

1:04 is GB-GS-7. 1:10 is GB-GSF-46. Video is not corect montage!

[kotymccallister]

Why is he putting his index finger on tip of the blade?

[Lind_V]

I don't see the point in a bread knife if you already have a serrated knife... for all general purposes, a chef knife is more than enough in a home kitchen. In a more professional enviornment, yes more knives will be better to cover a wider spectrum of needs. Such as fileting a fish, you'd most likely want a longer and flexible blade, depending on the type of fish of course.
