Fine knives should be cleaned as they were made: by hand. In most cases, it is quite sufficient to wipe the blade with a damp cloth. You should make sure that the knife is not left uncleaned for a long time. There are food residues (e.g. lemons) whose acids can attack even high-quality steel. Please avoid working on the knife with corrosive or abrasive aids. High-quality knives do not belong in the dishwasher or loose in a drawer (risk of injury!).

Güde is a Solingen knife manufacturer with over 100 years of tradition. The knives are forged by hand in small quantities. High-quality knives should not be stored loose in a cutlery drawer. The knives become blunt more quickly and there is a high risk of injury. It is best to use shapely and functional knife blocks or magnetic knife boards. We offer various storage options to match our Güde knives.
