Güde Alpha Pear Bread Knife 32 cm - CVM Knife Steel - Handle Scales Pear Wood

Bread knife? No, more like a bread sword. Yes, it is long, very long indeed. In this case, however, size DOES matter. No other bread knife allows you to cut bread so easily and with so much pleasure. Please restrain yourself, as more slices than needed are quickly cut.

The Alpha Pear Bread Sword literally glides through hard and soft crusts. It has a 32 cm long, straight blade with the famous Güde serrated edge made from stainless & hand-sharpened chrome-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel. The blade length ensures you won't despair even with wide loaves, and the weight 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, acts as a counterweight to the blade. The knife is perfectly balanced. The special mix of steel and the elaborate manufacturing process with over 30 manual steps give the stainless blades a special robustness and durability with a hardness of about 58 HRC.

The finely polished handle scales made of pear wood are embedded in the steel and triple-riveted. Pear wood is extremely hard with a finely structured, velvety grain. The Alpha Pear series was launched on the occasion of Güde's inclusion by the Jeunes Restaurateurs d’Europe, Germany section, into the circle of Preferred Suppliers. The association's logo is engraved in the double bolster.
