Güde Alpha Micarta Series Forged Chef's Knife 8.2-in, Micarta Handle

A true kitchen essential, this professional chef’s knife is designed to handle a wide variety of everyday prep tasks. Its broad, curved 8.26-inch blade allows for a smooth rocking motion when chopping herbs, dicing vegetables, and preparing proteins, while the pointed tip provides control for more detailed cuts.

Hand-Forged & Ice-Hardened in Solingen

Each Güde knife is crafted from high-quality chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel and hand-forged in Solingen, Germany. More than 40 individual production steps go into every knife, reflecting the precision and craftsmanship associated with traditional Solingen cutlery.

The forged blade combines lasting sharpness with strength and flexibility. Güde’s signature double-bolster construction helps distribute weight for excellent balance, while the full-tang design provides stability and control during a wide range of cutting tasks.

Micarta Handle: Comfortable & Secure

The durable Micarta handle features a naturally textured surface that provides a secure grip, even when wet. Designed for comfort and control during extended prep sessions, Micarta is also highly resistant to cracking and shrinking.

Care & Maintenance

Wash and dry the knife by hand immediately after use. Do not place in the dishwasher. Avoid leaving residue from acidic foods on the blade, and do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning products.
