The Santoku knife 1546 from the Güde Alpha series features the typical Japanese blade shape. This knife is versatile and ideal for fine cutting tasks in the kitchen. The hollow edge on the 18 cm long blade helps prevent thin and soft slices from sticking to the blade. This Güde knife is well-suited for cutting meat and is perfect for chopping larger fruits and vegetables. The hand-forged blade made of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel is crafted from a single piece, is stainless, ice-hardened, and hand-sharpened. The finely polished handle is made of durable and easy-care Hostaform (high-quality plastic) and is fitted with an aluminum palm rivet in the center, making it not dishwasher safe. The knives in the Güde Alpha series meet the requirements of the guidelines for knives used in the gastronomy sector.
