Since when does that have anything to do with knives or guns?

maladatGlobal is another option, they have been making all-steel knives for a long time.

SIGnifiedFull Tang Knives are not uncommon. It’s pretty much all I make. I’ve done the other, but it’s just not as durable IMO.

corsairIf you like that style of knife, go for it.
Full-tang knife means the blade metal extends through the handle, there's no welding or, soldering, its one solid piece of metal. The handle usually is a different material either riveted or, bonded to the metal. Good quality knives start with being a full-tang construction.
Global knives were all the rage about 15-years ago when they first came out. More people were enamored with the design and aesthetics than actual function. It has its place in the kitchen and if you're doing delicate work or, very exacting with your cuts, you may like it. I found them much too light and the thinness of the blades resulted in a few snapping-off.

maladatI have one Global, a flexible fillet/boning knife. It’s a pretty good knife, and being a lighter-duty knife, durability shouldn’t ever be a problem. The blade is good, but I don’t love the steel handle.
