I have used a co-workers Global, and personally wasn't happy with it, as the metal is way too soft. I think it would be ok for home use though.

If you want quality and cost is not much of a concern, get an "Aritsugu" or "Masamoto" brand.

If you want the best, get the Kikuichi brand, although it seems like they don't have their high end line of knives listed on the English site.

This is a good all-purpose knife for home use, and should be able to cut sashimi, as long as it is kept very sharp. You need a very sharp knife for cutting sashimi.
