About the knife series

The Güde Synchros stands for innovative knife design, in which the blade and handle flow smoothly into each other without any annoying edges and are forged from a single piece of stainless steel in up to 55 manual steps.
The handles are made of solid smoked oak and feature a convex shape and a uniform handle length of 12.5 cm, which allows for optimal grip and flexible hand positioning.
Typical features of Synchros include the raised handle position for maximum control, the balanced weight distribution thanks to the continuous tang, and particularly comfortable and safe knife guidance with all handling techniques.
The series dispenses with the classic bolster, offering a completely new cutting experience with precise power transmission and unmistakable character.

About Franz Güde GmbH

Franz Güde has been manufacturing Güde Solingen since 1910. Solingen knives by hand – now in the fourth generation. Each blade is created using traditional blacksmithing techniques and is personally ground and honed by experienced master craftsmen.

What Güde : consistent quality without compromise. High-quality steel, precise workmanship, and the characteristic full integration of blade and handle make every knife a tool for life.

With a Güde, you hold the Solingen forging tradition in your hands—a tool that not only cuts, but also brings daily joy to the craft.

About the history
Knives Solingen, Güde knives, chef's knives Solingen, knife set, sharpening steel, solinger knives

The Güde Synchros with a 23 cm blade length combines centuries-old Solingen blacksmithing with innovative design for a completely new cutting experience in your kitchen. Each knife is forged, ice-hardened, and sharpened by hand in up to 55 manual steps —from high-quality chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel, which guarantees exceptional sharpness and durability. The wide blade, ground through to the tang, makes this chef's knife a universal all-rounder for meat, vegetables, and herbs, while also meeting the requirements of a Santoku knife for Asian cuisine. The ergonomically shaped handle made of fine smoked oak is perfectly balanced in the hand thanks to the fully recessed tang and allows for flexible grip positions – from the classic grip to the professional overhand grip. The innovative design synchronizes the hand and knife into a single unit and ensures optimal use of force, intuitive guidance, and maximum safety thanks to the increased distance to the cutting board. With a total length of 35 cm and a weight of 314 g, this award-winning kitchen masterpiece meets the highest professional standards and impresses with its unique combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern design. Experience cutting culture at the highest level – a knife that fits your hand perfectly and makes every kitchen task a pleasure.

Pro Tip:

For optimal results with your Güde Synchros , we recommend using the full length of the blade when cutting vegetables, large pieces of meat, or herbs. Guide the knife as close to the handle as possible in a slight arc across the cutting board. This allows the blade, which is ground all the way to the tip, and the perfect balance to take full effect, enabling you to cut effortlessly, cleanly, and safely. Feel free to use the broad back of the blade to chop garlic or nuts by gently pressing down on them with the flat side. This saves time and is easy on your hand.

Discover the versatility of the Güde Synchros with a 23 cm blade length: a hand-forged masterpiece that combines traditional Solingen blacksmithing with modern design for first-class cutting precision.

The Güde Synchros with a 23 cm blade length is your universal companion for all cutting tasks in the kitchen. This classic knife is ideal for precise cutting, chopping, and mincing vegetables, portioning meat, or chopping fresh herbs – the wide and stable blade offers you perfect control and safety at all times, regardless of the cutting technique. Thanks to the blade, which is ground all the way to the tang, it also meets the requirements of a Santoku knife, opening up the world of Asian cuisine, for example for fine sushi strips, cutting tofu, or effortlessly cutting fish and Asian vegetables.

The ergonomically shaped handle made of fine smoked oak not only guarantees stylish design, but also optimal grip: flexible handle positions allow you to use both the classic chef's knife grip and the professional overhand grip – depending on your preference and application. This makes precise work with demanding cuts just as effortless as finely chopping fresh herbs.

The Güde Synchros inspires creativity, for example when cutting fruit for artistic fruit decorations, finely chopping nuts for your pesto, or slicing carpaccio and smoked salmon paper-thin. Even finely chopping chocolate or cutting bunches of herbs can be done effortlessly and precisely thanks to the perfectly balanced design. The innovative synchronization of hand and knife ensures maximum power transfer, intuitive guidance, and safety with every movement—so cutting always remains a comfortable pleasure.
