About the knife series

The Alpha series from Güde combines traditional blacksmithing with natural elegance: each knife is forged from high-quality CMV steel in up to 55 manual steps, ice-hardened, and sharpened by hand. The handle scales, made from 100 to 500-year-old olive wood, make each knife unique and impress with their striking grain, exceptional hardness, and weather resistance. The classic forged double bolster and ergonomic handle design with triple riveting ensure perfect balance and fatigue-free working. The series includes various types of knives, from chef's knives and santoku knives to the legendary bread knife with a 32 cm blade and characteristic serrated edge – a timeless design that has characterized Güde the 1930s.

About Franz Güde GmbH

Since 1910, Solingen have been made in Solingen with every detail perfectly crafted—from the selection of the blade steel to the final polish. In Güde forge, steaming hardening baths and precise grinding wheels Güde to Güde a manufacturing process that transforms steel into tools with character.

When the blade glides through vegetables, you can feel the balance between the handle and the cutting edge – a combination of traditional forging techniques and modern requirements for sharpness and durability.

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

The Güde Alpha tomato knife impresses with its special serrated edge, which glides effortlessly through the delicate tomato skin without crushing the flesh – ideal for perfect tomato slices and other fruits with firm skins. The warm olive wood handle fits comfortably in the hand and lends a natural elegance to every cut, while the premium Solingen steel quality guarantees long-lasting sharpness. Handcrafted in up to 55 manual steps, this special knife combines traditional craftsmanship with practical functionality for discerning amateur chefs. With its compact 13 cm blade, it is the perfect companion for precise cuts of tomatoes, citrus fruits, and other delicate foods. Experience the difference of genuine Güde from Solingen —for kitchen work at the highest level.

Pro Tip:

Using light pressure, guide the serrated knife through the tomato skin in a gentle sawing motion—this will keep the flesh intact and prevent the juice from running out. For soft tomatoes, hold the knife at a slight angle to avoid denting the fruit.

The Alpha tomato knife is your ideal companion when you want to perfectly prepare tomatoes and other fruits and vegetables with firm skin and soft insides. The serrated edge glides effortlessly through the smooth tomato skin without crushing the juicy flesh, giving you clean, even slices for caprese, bruschetta, or Mediterranean salads.
But the knife can do much more: use it to cut citrus fruits without the blade slipping, or portion soft baked goods such as fresh baguettes, croissants, or cake pops with precise cuts. The tomato knife is also ideal for delicate cutting of figs, peaches, or kiwis, as the serrated edge protects the sensitive structure.
Get creative when arranging platters: use the knife to garnish with wafer-thin radish slices or to trim the rind of soft cheeses. The olive wood handle fits comfortably in your hand, making every cut a moment of pleasure. With this knife, you can bring Mediterranean ease to your kitchen and gently prepare even the most delicate ingredients in no time at all.
