Güde THE KNIFE – More Than Just a Knife

Design Meets Functionality

THE KNIFE by Güde is not just a kitchen tool – it is an invitation to experience cutting in a new way. With its distinctive design and deliberately short handle, it challenges you to wield it like a professional: thumb and index finger securely grip the blade, while the middle finger comfortably rests in the notch at the blade's end. This way, the balance is perfectly in your hand, allowing for precise cuts without effort.

The seamless transitions between handle and blade ensure ergonomic handling, making work in the kitchen not only efficient but also pleasant. Whether you're chopping vegetables or carving meat – with THE KNIFE, every movement becomes a pleasure.

Güde The Knife

The Blade and Handle of the Knife

The Knife is a stunningly beautiful chef's knife, forged from a single piece of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel. The 26 cm large blade is ice-hardened, hand-sharpened, and stainless. The handle is not dishwasher safe.

Like the Stone Age hand axe, The Knife is also an (almost) natural extension of the human arm, making it an almost perfect tool. Firmly enclosed by the fingers, the Güde Knife The Knife, with a length of 31.5 cm and a weight of almost half a kilo, offers perfect control. An optimal cutting result is guaranteed with this knife.

How do I hold the knife correctly?

To have an optimal grip, form a U with your thumb and index finger and securely grasp the blade of the knife. Your middle finger will be comfortably "parked" in the finely crafted indentation at the end of the blade. The remaining fingers enclose the handle. The center of gravity of the knife is thus perfectly within the hand.

Güde Knife The Knife - the correct handling right

When cutting, it shortens the lever. The force of your hand acts vertically downwards, ensuring relaxed work. Due to the grip and the centered weight of the knife within your hand, the knife almost falls into the cutting material by itself.
