Güde Alpha Barrel Oak Herb Knife Shark 14 cm - CVM Steel - Handle Scales Wine Barrel Oak
Cutting herbs with a rocking knife can be cumbersome, as no hand is free to hold the herbs. With the Güde Shark herb knife, you can cut herbs in a rocking motion with one hand and hold the herbs with the other. But please don't ask us why it's called the Shark knife.
The Alpha Oak Barrel Shark herb knife has a 14 cm long, wide, and highly curved blade made of rust-free and hand-sharpened chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel. The curved blade allows for a back-and-forth rocking motion. It's perfect for cutting herbs, onions, garlic, and much more, even in a waltz rhythm.
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 counterbalance 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 approximately 58 HRC exceptional robustness and durability.
The finely polished handle scales made of oak wood from over 80-year-old wine barrels, called stave wood, are embedded in the steel and triple-riveted. Due to the long aging process, the coarse-textured wood is extremely hard and virtually indestructible. The Alpha Oak Barrel series was created in collaboration with Michelin-starred chef Harald Rüssel and his wife Ruth. Harald Rüssel's signature can be found as a laser engraving on each blade.
