Güde Alpha Pear Tomato Knife 13 cm with Serrated Edge - CVM Knife Steel - Pear Wood Handle Scales

The tomato knife is a larding and garnishing knife with a fine serrated edge. Especially ripe, soft vegetables and fruits such as tomatoes can be easily cut with this knife, if you do not have a well-sharpened knife at hand.

The large tomato knife has a 13 cm long, narrow & pointed blade made of rust-free and hand-sharpened chrome-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel. In addition, a fine serrated edge is ground into one side of the blade.

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 blend of steel and the elaborate manufacturing process with over 30 manual steps give the rust-free blades a hardness of approx. 58 HRC, a special robustness and longevity.

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 admission by the Jeunes Restaurateurs d’Europe, Germany section, into the circle of preferred suppliers. The logo of the association is engraved in the double bolster.
