About the knife series
The Alpha series from Güde blades made from a single piece of forged, stainless chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel, which are ice-hardened and sharpened by hand.
The distinctive handle scales are made from oak wood from old wine barrels, which is particularly robust and has a unique grain.
Typical features include the characteristic three-rivet design with stainless steel rivets and the central palm rivet as Güde.
Each knife in this series is manufactured in more than 40 manual steps and impresses with its perfect balance, durability, and exceptional cutting properties[1][2][3][5][7].

Franz Güde has been manufacturing Güde Solingen since 1910. Solingen – a family business spanning four generations that remains uncompromisingly committed to German craftsmanship to this day.
Every Güde undergoes more than 40 work steps, from blade shaping to the final polish. This combination of traditional blacksmithing and precision manufacturing technology makes Solingen knives the global benchmark.
When you hold a Güde in your hand, you can feel the difference: perfect balance, exceptional sharpness, and durability that lasts for decades.
The Güde Alpha chef's knife impresses with a hand-forged blade from Solingen, made from high-quality chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel for outstanding sharpness and durability. Up to 55 complex steps are involved in creating a knife that combines traditional Solingen craftsmanship of the highest standard with modern precision and unique design. The blade—available in lengths of 16 cm, 21 cm, or 26 cm—is versatile and perfect for cutting, chopping, and dicing vegetables, meat, or fish. A special highlight is the handle made from 80-year-old barrel oak: each individual knife is unique, with a history and a characterful appearance. Thanks to its optimal balance and ergonomic shape, the knife fits perfectly in the hand and enables precise and fatigue-free work in everyday kitchen use. The ice-hardened blade meets the highest standards of cutting performance and robustness – even for demanding cutting tasks. With a Güde Alpha chef's knife, you are investing in an exclusive tool that combines timeless craftsmanship, exceptional material quality, and a distinctive look. Experience cutting at the highest level and bring the history of great German knife tradition into your kitchen.
Pro Tip:
For precise and fatigue-free cutting, hold the Güde Alpha chef's knife directly at the transition from the handle to the blade—your thumb and index finger should grip the blade, allowing you to guide the knife safely and achieve clean cuts with optimal control. To maintain maximum sharpness, regularly sharpen the hand-forged knife with a suitable sharpening steel before use – this will ensure that your blade remains up to even the most demanding tasks.
