Santoku Knives

The santoku is shorter and straighter than a chef's knife, with a blade that meets the board along most of its length and a tip that curves down rather than up, so the cut is a clean downward push instead of a rock. Güde drop-forges it from one bar of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum steel in Solingen, ice-hardens it and sharpens it by hand through up to 55 manual operations. On the hollow-edge models, oval scallops are ground into both sides of the blade so wet slices break away instead of clinging.

Blades come in 5 and 7 inches, plain-edged or hollow-ground. The Alpha series in black Hostaform and the Alpha Olive series in olive wood cover both lengths and both grinds, with a 7-inch hollow edge in Alpha Pear and a 7-inch Franz Güde Damascus santoku, over 300 layers, on a desert ironwood handle.

Which line should I choose?

Every Güde line shares a blade drop-forged from one bar of steel in Solingen. What changes is the handle, the balance and the care: Alpha has dishwasher-safe black Hostaform, Alpha Olive, Pear and Barrel Oak put the same blade on wood, Kappa is all metal, and SYNCHROS drops the bolster. The line comparison sets them side by side.

Which Güde knives are dishwasher-safe?

The Alpha line with black Hostaform handles, the Universal line and the all-metal Kappa. Every wood and Micarta handle is hand-wash only: rinse, dry and put the knife away.

How fast do you ship?

You can return an item within 30 days of purchase, and every knife is covered by our Limited Lifetime Warranty. We prepay return postage when an item arrives damaged or incorrect. Returns and refunds

How do I keep the edge sharp?

Hone on a sharpening steel every few uses and sharpen on a whetstone when honing no longer brings the edge back. Cut on wood or plastic, never glass or stone. The care and sharpening guide walks through it.
