Alpha Chef's Knife - Oak Barrel Wood - 16cm

Güde Alpha Chef's Knife 16cm – with Barrel Oak Handle

The Güde Chef's Knife E805/16 from the Alpha Series has a beautiful barrel oak handle. The Güde knife fits well in the hand, thanks to the Güde Alpha series' trademark: the second bolster or forged pommel at the end of the handle, which gives Güde Alpha knives their excellent balance during cutting.

This versatile all-purpose knife has a tapering blade and is an essential in any kitchen. Like all Güde knives, this Güde Alpha Chef's Knife is hand-forged and hand-sharpened. The 16cm long blade, made from chrome-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel, is forged from a single piece, rust-proof, and ice-hardened. The typical knife rivets are also made of rust-proof stainless steel, but the palm rivet is made of non-rust-proof aluminum.

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

Güde Knives – Barrel 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 Mosel-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.

Blade hand-forged from a single piece of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel. Further processing in 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 patterns and inclusions are as they are, intended, and do not constitute grounds for complaint. The blade is rust-proof, ice-hardened, hand-sharpened, and not dishwasher safe.
