2024 Optic Angel Ornament

Introduction

The production of the finest possible handcrafted, forged cutlery is and always has been the driving philosophy of our company. For four generations the Gde family has neither compromised on nor wavered from this credo. Today Gde is proud to continue the centuries old tradition of quality knifemaking for which the town of Solingen is justly world famous.

Even at first glance, it is clear that ‘The Knife’ doesnt have much in common with a conventional chefs knife. In fact, its seemingly short handle and noticeably large blade with a very wide back, which can only be achieved in a forged knife, are more reminiscent of a designer object.

Nevertheless, as soon as you have actually worked with ‘The Knife’, you will realize that this isnt just an example of breathtaking beauty, but also, and above all, a kitchen tool boasting unique handling. The fact that the knife contains nothing but flowing lines and no disturbing transitions automatically guarantees the right grasp and comfortable hand support at all times.

Cooking with ‘The Knife’ really is more enjoyable than just looking at it!
