About the knife series

The Alpha series from Güde combines traditional craftsmanship with natural elegance: each knife is made from high-quality CMV steel in up to 55 manual steps, ice-hardened, and sharpened by hand. The handle scales, made from 100 to 500-year-old olive wood, make each knife unique and impress with their characteristic grain, exceptional hardness, and weather resistance. The classic forged double bolster, together with the ergonomic handle design, ensures optimal balance and fatigue-free working. The range includes chef's knives, bread knives, paring knives, peeling knives, and santoku knives—including the legendary Güde with a 32 cm blade and traditional pointed serrated edge, a design classic since the 1930s.

About Franz Güde GmbH

Güde deeply rooted in the living tradition of Solingen: here, every blade exudes the quiet power of Solingen's blacksmithing art, visible in its shape and tangible in its handle.

The knives are Solingen in Solingen in up to 55 manual steps. Forged from selected steels, hardened, tempered, and ground by hand, the craftsmanship philosophy is evident in the noticeable balance, clear precision, and feel that combines modern demands with old techniques.

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

Experience the perfect combination of traditional Solingen craftsmanship and modern design with the Güde Alpha bread knife – manufactured in up to 55 manual steps for maximum precision. The specially developed serrated edge glides effortlessly through crispy bread crusts without crushing the soft interior, while the ergonomic handle made of fine olive wood ensures fatigue-free working. The high-quality steel blade retains its sharpness for an exceptionally long time and makes every bread cut an experience – whether thin slices for breakfast or thick pieces for hearty sandwiches. With this masterpiece from Solingen , you Solingen a piece of German knife tradition into your kitchen that will last for generations and impress you every day with its unparalleled cutting performance. Invest in quality that is noticeable with every cut.

Pro Tip:

For even slices , saw the bread with light pressure and let the serrated blade do the work—never press or chop. The olive wood fits comfortably in your hand and gives you the control you need to cut perfect slices of bread, from the crispy crust to the soft center.

The bread knife from the Alpha series is your ideal companion for all types of bread—from crispy farmhouse loaves with thick crusts to soft toast. The serrated edge glides effortlessly through hard crusts without you having to apply pressure, while cutting precisely through the soft crumb without crushing it.

Use the knife in the traditional way to cut fresh bread, rolls, or baguettes – the slices will be even and clean, without crumbs on the work surface. But the bread knife can do much more: it is ideal for portioning cakes and pies with crispy bases, cutting soft fruits such as tomatoes or pineapple, and slicing melons. It is also perfect for sandwiches and open-faced sandwiches, as it cuts cleanly through all layers without squeezing out the filling.

The elegant olive wood fits comfortably in your hand and makes every cut a controlled experience. Try the knife when cutting frozen bread or slicing focaccia and ciabatta – you will be amazed by the precision and ease with which this knife works.
