Güde Alpha Pear Bread Knife 32 cm - CVM Steel - Pear Wood Handle Scales

Bread knife? No, more like a bread sword. Yes, it's long, very long indeed. In this case, however, size DOES matter. No other bread knife makes cutting bread so easy and enjoyable. Please restrain yourself, as more slices than needed can be cut quickly.

The Alpha Pear Bread Sword glides through hard and soft crusts. It has a 32 cm long, straight blade with the famous Güde serrated edge made of rust-free and hand-sharpened chrome-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel. The blade length allows you to not despair even with wide breads, and the weight of the knife supports your sawing motion, so that only light pressure is needed. A truly impressive bread knife in every respect.

Güde knives are hand-forged from a single piece of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel, from the tip of the blade to the double bolster. The double bolster, a special feature of Güde knives, provides a counterweight to the blade. The knife is perfectly balanced. The special steel blend and the elaborate manufacturing process with over 30 manual steps give the rust-free blades with a hardness of about 58 HRC a special robustness and durability.

The finely polished pear wood handle scales are embedded in the steel and triple-riveted. Pear wood is extremely hard with a finely structured, velvety grain. The Alpha Pear series was launched on the occasion of Güde's inclusion by the Jeunes Restaurateurs d'Europe, Section Germany, in the circle of preferred suppliers. The association's logo is engraved in the double bolster.
