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

The Güde Walnut Güde from the Alpha series represents the highest level of craftsmanship from Solingen combines traditional handiwork with state-of-the-art precision. With its 21 cm long, hand-forged blade made of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel, the knife is ideal for cutting wafer-thin slices, carving and filleting roasts, ham, fish or even fruit and vegetables. Each blade is manufactured in up to 55 careful steps, guaranteeing unparalleled sharpness, durability, and a particularly fine grind. The non-slip walnut handle not only fits comfortably and securely in the hand, but is also extremely comfortable during long periods of use thanks to its optimal balance. The elegant grain of the wood makes each knife unique and underlines the exclusive character of the series. Thanks to its tapered shape, the blade glides excellently through tender meat and ensures perfect, even slices. With this Solingen masterpiece, you are adding a distinctive tool to your kitchen that meets the highest standards and will last for generations. A ham knife from Güde for quality workmanship that you can see and feel with every cut – a strong argument for anyone who refuses to compromise when it comes to cutting.

Pro Tip:

Guide the ham knife through the food in long, even strokes – this allows you to make optimal use of the entire length of the blade and effortlessly achieve wafer-thin, precise slices without fraying. When carving, be careful not to saw the knife, but rather let it glide through the meat or fish with light pressure – the exceptional sharpness of the hand-forged blade does the work by itself.

With the Güde Walnut Güde from the Alpha series, you have a true all-rounder for your kitchen. Thanks to its long, slim, and extremely sharp blade, it glides through ham or roast meat with ease and cuts effortlessly into wafer-thin, even slices—whether raw or cooked. This knife makes the precise carving of festive roasts a real experience and impresses with its perfect cut. The ham knife is also ideal for filleting fish – the fine hollow edge of the blade ensures ideal guidance and minimizes sticking, allowing you to give fish fillets soft, clean edges.

But its range of uses extends far beyond classic meat dishes: the ham knife also demonstrates its precision when cutting vegetables such as pumpkin or eggplant, and allows you to cut large fruits – for example, cleanly portioning a melon or filleting oranges for desserts. With a little creativity, you can use its exceptional sharpness to prepare wafer-thin carpaccio slices not only from meat, but also from zucchini, beetroot, or fennel. The tapered shape of the blade also makes it easy to portion smoked fish, artfully slice cheese wheels, or precisely cut baked goods. Thanks to the beautifully shaped, hand-flattering walnut handle, you can enjoy even longer cutting tasks without fatigue, always with maximum control and the secure feeling of a Solingen masterpiece in your hand.

With a ham knife like this, you are not only relying on traditional craftsmanship, but also bringing the highest functionality and a touch of individuality to your kitchen, which will inspire you both in everyday life and when cooking creatively.
