About the knife series

The Alpha series from Güde combines traditional blacksmithing with the natural beauty of centuries-old olive wood. Each knife is hand-forged from high-quality CMV steel in up to 55 manual steps, ice-hardened, and sharpened—the classic double bolster ensures perfect balance and safety. The handle scales, crafted from olive wood ranging from 100 to 500 years old, make each knife unique thanks to their distinctive grain and impress with exceptional hardness and weather resistance. With a blade hardness of 57–58 HRC, the series offers outstanding edge retention and re-sharpenability for all demanding kitchen tasks. Note: Hand washing only recommended; not dishwasher safe.

About Franz Güde

Güde, a family-owned business founded in 1910, carries on the tradition of Solingen’s blacksmithing craftsmanship in every blade. The knives are crafted in Solingen , so that you immediately feel the balance and a distinct tactile quality with the very first cut.

Traditional forging techniques are combined with modern testing methods: high-alloy steels are heat-treated, forged, and hand-ground multiple times, so that the blades feel warm in the hand, cut cleanly, and deliver a noticeably precise cutting experience.

About the History
Solingen knives, Güde , Solingen chef's knives, knife sets, sharpening steels, Solingen knives

The Alpha meat fork from Güde Solingen German craftsmanship with Mediterranean flair and is crafted through up to 55 manual steps. The elegant olive wood handle not only feels comfortable in the hand but also adds a special touch to any barbecue or dinner party, while the sturdy prongs securely grip even heavy cuts of meat. Thanks to the perfectly balanced weight distribution, you can effortlessly and professionally turn and elegantly serve steaks, roasts, and poultry with precision. The robust construction and the natural beauty of the Mediterranean wood make this meat fork a durable companion that masterfully combines functionality and aesthetics. Experience the difference of genuine Solingen quality and transform every meal into a stylish culinary experience.

Pro tip:

Use the meat fork when carving large roasts to hold the meat securely in place and cut even slices. When serving at the table, the two-pronged fork ensures elegant portioning without the roast slipping or falling apart.

With the Alpha meat fork, you can turn juicy steaks, roasts, and poultry with confidence and elegance. The sturdy tines effortlessly pierce even larger cuts of meat without losing any of the precious juices. When carving roasts or rolled roasts, you can hold the meat firmly in place while cutting precise slices with your knife.

The olive wood handle sits comfortably in the hand and gives the fork a Mediterranean flair that makes a particularly elegant impression when serving directly at the table. You can also use the meat fork to portion grilled vegetables or to hold fish fillets in place while filleting.

Get creative by using the fork to pierce and check doneness—the tines glide smoothly through the meat and give you immediate feedback on the texture. When serving at the table, the fork impresses with its attractive appearance and allows for stylish presentation. Even when carving poultry, you can confidently stabilize the piece with the meat fork while working along the joints.
