500 year old olive wood meets Solingen blacksmithing - the Güde Alpha Olive chef's knife

The handmade chef's knife comes from the Güde Alpha Olive knife series. The combination of 500 year old olive wood and traditional blacksmithing make this kitchen knife unique. The Güde company uses approx. 500 year old olive wood from sustainable wood cultivation for the handle scales. The slow growth of the olive tree gives the wood its unique grain and makes it more resistant. Olive wood handle scales are antibacterial and are comfortable to hold. Due to the different grains of the olive wood, each knife is unique. The wide blade of the kitchen knife has a length of 16-26 cm, making it a true all-rounder in the kitchen. It not only masters simple cutting work, but also chopping and cleaning work. The hand-forged blade made of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel is made from one piece, ice-hardened rust-free and hand-sharpened. The Güde chef's 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.

In our shop you can choose between a blade length of 16, 21 and 26 cm.

Güde Alpha Olive Series:

The Güde Alpha Olive series is classic Solingen craft in a timelessly simple design, high-quality workmanship and extremely functional. The blades - made of rustproof Thyssen CMV steel - are drop forged, ice-hardened and sharpened by hand. The handle scales made of olive wood are riveted three times and give each Güde Alpha Olive chef's knife an individual and timeless look. The handle scales of the Güde Alpha Olive series are made from 100 to 500 years old, selected olive wood. This makes them very hard and robust. This series is a perfect combination of historical wood and traditional blacksmithing.
