About the knife series

The knives in the Güde Alpha series feature handles made from fine-grained American walnut wood, which is secured with three stainless steel rivets and features the characteristic aluminum palm rivet in the center.
Each blade is drop-forged from a single piece of stainless chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel, ice-hardened, and sharpened by hand – resulting in knives that meet the highest standards of sharpness, stability, and design thanks to their elaborate craftsmanship.
Typical of the series is the perfect balance achieved by the full tang and double bolster, as well as the striking grain of the wood, which makes each piece unique.
Up to 55 meticulous steps underline the craftsmanship and quality of these traditional Solingen manufactured products.
