About the knife series

The Güde Kappa is entirely hand-forged from a single piece of high-quality chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel and elaborately processed in over 30 manual steps.
Thanks to their solid metal construction, the blade and handle are seamlessly connected, which not only ensures maximum stability and durability, but also guarantees perfect weight distribution and balance.
The knives are rustproof, ice-hardened, and dishwasher-safe thanks to their all-metal construction.
Typical of the Kappa is the striking, multi-award-winning design with the characteristic double bolster for optimal finger protection and perfect handling—professional Güde, manufactured in traditional Solingen craftsmanship.
