About the knife series
The Deltaseries from Güde with its excellent craftsmanship and high-quality materials. The knives are forged from a single piece of rust-resistant chrome-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel and manufactured in over 40 manual steps. However, the handles are not made of grenadill wood, as there is no mention of smoked oak in the information provided, and the Delta series Delta uses grenadill wood handles. These knives offer perfect balance and are hand-sharpened, making them a special experience for every cutting task.
The Delta is known for its classic handle shape, which has been in use for over 100 years, complemented by solid, slightly raised grenadille wood handle scales. This type of wood is extremely hard and durable, making it ideal for the manufacture of high-quality knife handles.

Pro tip:
Use the Güde DeltaGüde regularly before each use of your knives and guide the blade over the medium-fine sharpening surface several times on both sides at as flat an angle as possible (approx. 15–20°) with light pressure; this will ensure that your knives deliver optimum cutting performance and significantly extend their service life.
The Güde Delta Güde is the ideal tool for maintaining the sharpness of your high-quality kitchen knives and ensures excellent cutting results at all times.
Thanks to its medium-fine grind and a length of 26 cm, this sharpening steel quickly and effectively restores the fine cutting edge of your knives – whether classic chef's knives for everyday use or delicate blades for special tasks.
The Güde Delta is traditionally used to gently restore the cutting edge of chef's, meat, or vegetable knives after each use, significantly prolonging their sharpness. Particularly practical: even with knives that are used constantly by ambitious hobbyists or professionals, the usual cutting performance is maintained in the long term without you having to constantly resharpen the knife.
You can also use the sharpening steel creatively for smaller kitchen knives, for example to make your tomato knife glide effortlessly again before its next use, or to get outdoor knives and snack knives ready for the next picnic in no time at all.
The ergonomic handle made of sturdy smoked oak with raised inlay fits perfectly in the hand and enables safe, precise guidance—even during longer sharpening processes.
