DESCRIPTION: With the Gude sharpening steel from the Alpha series you have the right sharpening steel. Sharpening is effective when the knife is not yet blunt, but simply no longer has the usual sharpness. The sharpening steel straightens the thinly ground cutting edge of the knife and keeps it sharp for a long time.
Gude knives are hand-forged in Solingen, Germany from one piece of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel, from the blade tip to the double crop. The double crop, a special feature of Gude knives, is a counterweight to the blade. The knife is perfectly balanced. The special mixture of steel and the elaborate manufacturing process with more than 30 manual steps give the stainless steel blades with a hardness of approx. 57 HRC a special robustness and longevity.
The finely polished Hostaform handles are embedded in the steel and triple riveted. Hostaform plastic is extremely resistant, very hygienic and comfortable to hold. The Alpha series meets the strict requirements for use in the gastronomy and offers the widest range of models.
