Pro Tip:
For wafer-thin, even slices of ham or roast meat, guide the Franz Güde ham knife with a steady, pulling motion and as little pressure as possible—this allows the long, narrow blade to glide cleanly through the meat, preserving its structure and flavor. Additional tip: For best results, always use a sharp ham knife on a suitable cutting board and avoid jerky movements. This will ensure particularly precise and appetizing results.
The Franz Güde ham knife is ideal for cutting wafer-thin slices of ham, air-dried specialties, and roasts.
The long, narrow, hand-sharpened blade glides effortlessly through meat fibers, allowing you to cut precise, even slices without tearing or crushing the meat. This makes the knife particularly valuable when preparing classic carpaccio, fine prosciutto, or Serrano ham.
In addition to ham, the knife is also ideal as a carving knife for roasts, roast beef, and other tender meats—perfect for serving clean, appetizing slices of meat directly at the table or buffet.
Thanks to its slim shape and excellent balance, the ham knife is also well suited for portioning salmon and other fish fillets. If you want to get creative, you can also use it to cut boiled eggs, mozzarella, or even beetroot and zucchini into wafer-thin slices for salads or platters.
Whether for a festive meal, serving antipasti, or making the perfect sandwich, the Franz Güde ham knife is always the right choice when precision, fine cuts, and maximum control are required.
