Is it possible to have custom data for a specific inventory item for a specific player? Or is it a global custom data system?

Yes, that's specifically how the service works - there's CustomData in the catalog, which is global for all players, and separately each inventory item instance in player inventory has CustomData, which can be used for distinct values per player item.

Interesting, is there anyway to see individual custom data for a specific inventory item inside of the PlayFab admin panel? Because whenever I click an item in my players inventory from PlayFab, it takes me to the gobal catalog item, not that specific item.
Yes, if you hover over the blue "note" icon on the player inventory item list, you'll see that its help text is "Show custom data".
