About the knife series

The Güde Kappaseries impresses with its unique all-metal design, in which the blade and handle are hand-forged from a single piece of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel – a true hallmark of the Solingen knife manufacturer.
In over 30 manual steps, a knife with perfect balance, a rust-free surface, and excellent cutting performance is created, which remains particularly durable thanks to ice hardening.
The innovative design with the typical double bolster ensures comfortable handling, optimal weight distribution, and impressive aesthetics, which have already been recognized with the Red Dot Design Award.
The knives are dishwasher safe, impress with their balanced feel and, thanks to their quality and precision, are equally suitable for professionals and discerning amateur chefs.
