Alpha Peeling Knife – Oak Handle – 6cm

Güde Alpha Paring Knife – with Barrel Oak Handle

The Güde Paring Knife E703/6 from the Alpha series features a beautiful handle made of barrel oak. The Güde knife sits comfortably in the hand, thanks in part to the trademark of the Güde Alpha series: the second bolster or forged pommel at the end of the handle, which gives the Güde Alpha knives their excellent balance when cutting.

The Güde paring knife peels potatoes, vegetables, and fruit effortlessly and economically. Because its curved, saber-shaped blade adapts to every curve while peeling and is therefore easy to guide, it should not be missing in any kitchen. Like all Güde knives, this Güde Alpha paring knife is hand-forged and hand-sharpened. The 6 cm blade, made of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel, is forged from one piece, rustproof, and ice-hardened. The typical knife rivets are made of stainless steel, while the palm rivet is made of non-stainless aluminum.

The handle scales made from the oak wood of wine barrels over 80 years old give this knife series its special charm. The curved blade and the barrel oak scales should be cleaned by hand as soon as potatoes, vegetables, or fruit have been peeled. Usually, a dishcloth dampened with warm water is sufficient. The knife is not dishwasher safe.

Güde Knives – Barrel Oak

In collaboration with star chef Harald Rüssel, whose gourmet restaurant and hotel, Landhaus St. Urban, is located in a side valley of the Mosel-Saar-Ruwer wine region and belongs to the Nik Weis winery, Güde created this series – not just for wine lovers and cooking enthusiasts. This knife series received the coveted Red Dot Design Award.

The blade is hand-forged from a single piece of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel. Further processing involves over 40 manual steps. The handle scales are made from the oak wood of wine barrels over 80 years old, which has become virtually indestructible due to its long aging process. Each handle scale is unique; grains and inclusions are as they are intended to be and do not constitute a reason for complaint. The blade is rustproof, ice-hardened, hand-sharpened, and not dishwasher safe.
