Global™ Knife Sharpening & Repair by Post UK
Swipe to reveal Global Repairs
Specialist Global knife sharpening, repair and re-serration from Blade & Butler, available throughout the UK by courier.
Global knives are by far the most common knife
brand we receive at our workshop, giving us extensive first-hand experience of
sharpening, repairing and restoring Global blades across their different ranges
and models.
We professionally sharpen Global chef's knives,
Santoku knives, utility and paring knives, single-bevel models, Global shears
and serrated Global bread knives.
Damaged tips, chips and misaligned edge profiles
can also be repaired as part of our service.
Our nationwide courier service allows Global owners
anywhere in the UK to send their knives directly to our workshop for
professional sharpening and return delivery to their door.
We have been sharpening knives for generations and Global™ is
the brand we see more frequently than any other in our workshop.
Every Global knife is individually assessed before sharpening.
We take account of the blade geometry, condition, existing edge and intended
use before determining the most appropriate sharpening approach.
Single-bevel Global knives are sharpened on one side only,
maintaining their intended asymmetric geometry, while conventional double-bevel
models are sharpened correctly on both sides.
Our objective is simple: remove only the steel necessary to
restore a sharp, practical and durable cutting edge while maintaining the
correct profile and geometry angle of the knife.
Global Bread Knife Sharpening & Re-Serration
We sharpen Global serrated bread knives ( See below example mid-service ) and can
also completely re-serrate worn Global bread-knife edges on request.
The Global G-9 is one of the serrated models we
regularly work on. Where the original serrations have become excessively worn
or damaged, we can cut a new functional serrated profile by hand rather than
simply sharpening the existing worn edge.
Full bread-knife
re-serration is available on request at no additional charge with our
sharpening service. If you would like your Global bread knife fully
re-serrated, simply request “re-serration” in the comments when placing
your order.

Global Knife Rust, Pitting & Restoration
Global™ knives are made from stainless steel, but
stainless does not mean completely immune to corrosion.
We regularly encounter Global™ blades with red
surface rust, which can usually be removed as part of our service. More serious
pit corrosion appears as small dark marks or pits within the surface of the
steel and cannot simply be polished away without removing significant blade
material.
Corrosion can also occur around the welded area
between the blade and handle. We therefore recommend washing Global™ knives
carefully and drying them by hand immediately after use rather than allowing
them to remain wet or air-dry.
Where appropriate, we can also reduce or remove scratches and
surface marking from Global™ blades. Deep scratch removal may affect
or remove the Global logo depending upon its position on the blade.
Global Knife Sharpening – FAQ's
Can you repair a chipped Global knife?
Yes. Chips and damage to the cutting edge can
normally be repaired as part of our sharpening service at no additional cost.
The blade is carefully reprofiled to remove the damage before a new cutting
edge is created.
Can you repair a broken Global knife tip?
Yes. Damaged and broken tips are among the most
common repairs we perform. The blade is carefully reprofiled to create a new
functional tip while removing only the material necessary to complete the
repair.
Can you sharpen Global bread knives?
Yes. We sharpen Global serrated bread knives and
can completely re-serrate worn bread-knife edges on request. If you require
full re-serration, request “re-serration” in the comments when ordering
or we'll assess and perform.
Do you sharpen single-bevel Global knives?
Yes. Single-bevel Global knives are sharpened on
the appropriate side only in order to maintain their intended asymmetric edge
geometry.
Can you remove rust from Global knives?
Red surface rust can usually be removed. Pit
corrosion penetrates into the surface of the steel and generally cannot be
completely removed.
Can I send my Global knives to you by post?
Yes. Blade & Butler provides a nationwide knife
sharpening service by DPD insured up to £1000. We send you our protective knife
packaging and your Global knives are returned directly to your door after
sharpening and quality control.
Are repairs included with Global knife sharpening?
ALL damage to the cutting edge, broken tips and
appropriate blade reprofiling are included within our standard sharpening
service rather than being charged as separate repairs.
How do I send my Global knives to Blade & Butler?
Place your sharpening order online and we will send
you our knife box and protective packaging. Pack your knives following the
enclosed instructions and return them to us using your selected courier
service. Once sharpened, repaired and quality checked, they are securely
packaged and returned directly to you.
