Güde Alpha Peeling Knife 6 cm - CVM Steel - Hostaform Handle Scales
With any knife, you can technically peel, but with a peeling knife, you can bring vegetables and fruit to an even more perfect shape. In kitchen jargon, peeling and shaping is called "tourner". This is where half-moon shaped potatoes are often carved.
The Alpha peeling knife has a 6 cm long, curved blade made of rust-free and hand-sharpened chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel. The curved tip, also known as a "knee", allows for extremely precise fine and round cuts.
Güde knives are hand-forged from a single piece of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel, from the blade tip 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 approximately 58 HRC a special robustness and durability.
The finely polished Hostaform handle scales are embedded in the steel and triple-riveted. Hostaform plastic is extremely resistant, very hygienic, and feels comfortable in the hand. The Alpha series meets the strict requirements for use in gastronomy and offers the largest variety of models.
