Güde Damascus Steel Bread Knife 32 cm - Handle Scales Desert Ironwood

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 quickly cut.

The Alpha Olive 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 tackle even wide breads without despair, and the weight of the knife supports your sawing motion, requiring only light pressure. 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 involving over 30 manual steps give the rust-free blades with a hardness of approximately 58 HRC a special robustness and durability.

The finely polished handle scales made of up to 500-year-old, selected olive wood are embedded in the steel and triple-riveted. The very hard and resistant wood has a strong, elegant grain.
