Güde Alpha barrel oak tomato knife

Description

Noble wood meets traditional blacksmithing - the Güde Alpha barrel oak tomato knife E464 / 13

The handmade tomato knife comes from the Güde Alpha Fasseiche knife series, which was developed in collaboration between Güde and the star chef Harald Rüssel. The combination of fine wood and traditional blacksmithing make this kitchen knife unique. The wood of the handle comes from oak wine barrels that are over 80 years old - the so-called Fuder barrel wood. Due to the long period of ripening, the oak wood used is almost indestructible and extremely robust. The handy Güde tomato knife from the Alpha Fasseiche series cuts through the firm tomato skin with its special serrated edge without crushing the tomato. The 13 cm long blade is ideal for both cheese and fruit. The tomato knife is perfect for fruits with a lot of pulp. The hand-forged blade made of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel is made from one piece, ice-hardened and hand-sharpened. The Güde tomato knife has a blade hardness of 56 HRC. Accordingly, a simple regrinding is possible without the material suffering as a result. The mixture of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum is mainly used by the Güde company for the production of high-quality knives. This means that the blade has an optimal level of corrosion resistance, i.e. it is rust-free. The blade steel is ice-hardened after processing. As a result, the knife remains as sharp as when used for the first time, even after repeated use.
