The handle scales are made of the oak wood of Venetian gondola poles (briccole). These poles are replaced every 100 years. And so some of these stakes found their way to Solingen in the knife manufactory of GÜDE. This special edition, limited to four knives, brings the incomparable flair of the Italian lagoon metropolis into the kitchen.

Like all the knives in the Alpha series, the blade of the Briccole di Venezia series is hand-forged from one piece of chrome-vanadium-molybdenum knife steel. More than 40 further manual operations by hand are necessary to produce a unique piece of Solingen knifemaking art. Due to the wooden handles, these knives should not be put in the dishwasher. The blade is stainless, ice-hardened and of course hand-sharpened.
