Alpha Bread Knife – Oak Barrel Wood – 21cm

Güde – Alpha Bread Knife – Wine Cask Oak

The Güde Bread Knife E430/21 from the Alpha Series features a beautiful wine cask oak handle. The Güde knife fits comfortably in the hand, thanks in part to the trademark of the Güde Alpha series, the second bolster or the forged pommel at the end of the handle, which gives Güde Alpha knives their excellent balance when cutting.

The Güde bread knife has a serrated edge with pointed teeth, making cutting bread, baguettes, and rolls even easier. It cuts firm bread as cleanly as soft bread and should be a staple in every kitchen. Like all Güde knives, this Güde Alpha bread knife is hand-forged and hand-sharpened. The 21cm long blade made of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel is crafted in one piece, rust-free, and ice-hardened. The typical knife rivets are also made of rust-free stainless steel, but the palm rivet is made of non-rust-free aluminum.

The unique handle scales made from oak wood from over 80-year-old wine barrels give this knife series its special charm. We recommend cleaning these high-quality knives, such as the Güde utility knife, by hand immediately after use. Often, a dishcloth soaked in warm water is sufficient. The knife is not suitable for dishwashers.

Güde Knives – Wine Cask Oak

In collaboration with Michelin-starred chef Harald Rüssel, whose gourmet restaurant and hotel Landhaus St. Urban is located in a side valley of the Moselle-Saar-Ruwer wine region and belongs to the Nik Weis winery, Güde created this series – not only – for wine lovers and cooking enthusiasts. This knife series received the coveted Red Dot Design Award.

The blade is hand-forged from a single piece of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel. Further processing involves over 40 manual steps. The handle scales are made from the oak wood of over 80-year-old wine barrels, which has become almost indestructible due to its long maturation. Each handle scale is unique; grain and inclusions are as they are, intended, and do not constitute a reason for complaint. The blade is rust-free, ice-hardened, and hand-sharpened and not dishwasher-safe.
