Alpha Prep Knife – POM – 16cm

Güde Alpha preparation knife – with black POM handle

The Güde preparation knife 1765/16 from the Alpha series features a black POM handle. The Güde knife sits comfortably in the hand, which is partly due to the trademark of the Güde Alpha series: the secondary bolster or forged pommel at the end of the handle, which gives Güde Alpha knives their excellent balance while cutting.

This versatile all-purpose knife has a pointed blade and is an essential addition to any kitchen. Like all Güde knives, this Güde Alpha preparation knife is hand-forged and hand-sharpened. The 16cm blade, made of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel, is forged in one piece, rustproof, and ice-hardened. The typical knife rivets are also made of rustproof stainless steel, while the palm rivet is made of non-rustproof aluminum.

Güde – Chef's knives from Solingen

Producing high-quality forged knives by hand in small batches was, is, and remains the philosophy of the Güde knife manufactory – for four generations, without any compromises, and always committed to the centuries-old art of knife making that established the reputation of the city of Solingen.

The finely polished handle is made of robust and low-maintenance Hostaform, a high-quality plastic, and is dishwasher safe. Nevertheless, for the preparation knife, cleaning by hand immediately after use is recommended. Usually, a dishcloth dampened with warm water is sufficient.

The knives are crafted to a high standard, are extremely functional, and feature a timeless, simple design. The blade is hand-forged in one piece from chrome-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel. Further processing involves over 40 manual steps. The knives of the Alpha series meet the requirements of guidelines for knives used in the catering industry and offer the greatest variety of models among the Güde series.
