Güde Alpha Pear Vegetable Knife 9 cm - CVM Steel - Pear Wood Handle Scales

Cutting vegetables and fruit can be enjoyable. Okay, not for everyone. But the joy of the result is usually even greater. And with a decent vegetable knife, it's not such a big ordeal.

The Alpha Birne vegetable knife has a 9 cm long, almost straight blade made of rust-free and hand-sharpened chrome-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel. So it's perfect for all those precise fine work where long blades are too long.

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 Birne 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.
