Güde knives is a traditional manufacturer based in Solingen and the inventor of the serrated edge for bread knives. Güde knives are forged from a single piece of Solingen steel and are hand-finished and sharpened, with a hardness of 56 HRC. The handles are made from old oak barrels, olive wood, or POM. There is a special series of hand-forged Damascus knives with 300 layers of non-corrosive Damascus steel and a hardness of 61 HRC, with handles made from desert ironwood (petrified wood).

The Alpha paring knife by Güde is made in Solingen and is a practical knife for preparation tasks. The forged and hand-sharpened blades of the Alpha knives are made from a single piece of stainless chromium-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel. The finely polished handle of the Güde Alpha knives is made from very durable Hostaform plastic and is dishwasher safe.
