Global Knives

[LouiseE]

Does anyone know if its possible to buy Global knives anywhere in Buenos Aires or if the import restrictions makes them impossible to find?

Thanks

I have seen a few, but not recently, and they were fiercely expensive.
There is a really fancy chef's supply place on Scalabrini Ortiz, between Cordoba and Santa Fe, that, I believe, has them. They did, anyway, along with real Birki clogs, chili pepper chef pants, and other high end imported high end stuff. The prices run between double and triple what you are used to paying in the USA.
I bring my own Global knives down when I come.

I went with "Mundial".

Different spelling, same meaning.

Also not at all the same thing. But this is good advice, I think the premium mundial lines are excellent knives, especially considering the price. A bargin!
