About the knife series

The Güde Alpha series is characterized by its distinctive handle scales made from over 100-year-old barrel oak, which are crafted from former wine barrels and ensure exceptional robustness and a unique grain pattern.
Another highlight is the forged knife blades made from stainless chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel, which are created in over 40 complex manual steps and are ice-hardened and hand-sharpened.
Typical of the Alpha is the characteristic double hump, which ensures optimal balance and excellent handling.
The central palm decorative rivet and the three-rivet design underline the perfection of the craftsmanship and give each knife its unique character.

About Franz Güde GmbH

Franz Güde has been manufacturing Güde Solingen since 1910. Solingen knives by hand – now in its fourth generation. Each blade is created using traditional blacksmithing techniques and is ground and polished by experienced master craftsmen.

What makes them special: 100% Made in Solingen. From the first hammer blow to the final grind, no knife leaves the workshop until it meets Güde strict Güde.

When you hold a Güde in your hand, you can feel over 110 years of experience – and a tool that will last a lifetime.

About the history
Knives Solingen, Güde knives, chef's knives Solingen, knife set, sharpening steel, solinger knives

The Güde from the Alpha series combines traditional Solingen craftsmanship with modern design and maximum functionality. The delicate and flexible blade made of ice-hardened chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel is 13 cm long and allows you to bone meat and poultry with particular precision. Up to 40 complex manual steps are required to create a knife of exceptional quality, which ensures maximum sharpness and long-lasting cutting performance thanks to its optimal hardness (approx. 57–58 HRC). Another highlight is the handle made from 100-year-old oak wood from historic wine barrels, which makes each piece unique and guarantees comfortable, secure handling. The perfect balance achieved by the full tang and double bolster enables ergonomic, fatigue-free working – even during longer periods of use in the kitchen. The boning knife impresses with its unique combination of durability, stability, and exclusive appearance. Those who value precision, comfort, and genuine Solingen craftsmanship will find that the Alpha boning knife is not just a tool, but a real statement of sophistication and style in the kitchen. This knife is the first choice for connoisseurs and professionals who want to ensure an exceptional cutting experience and a piece of tradition.

Pro Tip:

Always guide the Güde Alpha Güde with its flexible, slim blade close to the bone to remove meat with particular precision and minimal waste; ensure that your cuts are gentle and controlled, especially when skinning or removing tendons and fat. The excellent balance and ergonomic handle ensure safe and fatigue-free working, even during longer periods of use in the kitchen.

The Güde Alpha series Güde is your exclusive companion for demanding kitchen tasks, offering maximum precision and comfort.
Thanks to its delicate, 13 cm long, flexible blade, this knife is ideal for boning meat and poultry. Make fine cuts along the bone and remove tendons, skin, and cartilage with minimal loss of meat—this way, you preserve as much of the valuable food as possible. The boning knife is ideal for preparing whole pieces of meat, such as lamb, beef, or venison legs, as well as for expertly portioning roast chicken or turkey.
But the knife also opens up a wide range of creative possibilities: use the flexible blade to fillet whole fish, remove skin, or cut through fine structures – for example, when carefully preparing sushi or skinning small game. The boning knife even has its place when peeling and portioning citrus fruits or precisely cutting cake dough in the bakery. With its ergonomically shaped handle made from over 100-year-old oak wood from former wine barrels, the knife fits comfortably and securely in your hand. This allows you to work effortlessly even on extensive kitchen projects and enjoy a cutting experience that uniquely combines function and tradition.
The Güde Alpha Boning Knife is ideal if you value not only high-quality cooking tools, but also aesthetics, character, and a piece of genuine Solingen craftsmanship—perfect for connoisseurs and professionals who want to be inspired in the kitchen.
