## Long description

The gude Alpha Chai Dao cooking knife with a 16 cm blade and olive wood handle is a compact, versatile kitchen tool suitable for everyday food preparation. The Chai Dao-style blade combines a broad profile with a slightly curved edge that supports slicing, chopping and push-cut techniques. The olive wood handle offers a natural feel and ergonomic grip for routine kitchen tasks while keeping the overall knife lightweight and easy to control.
Advantages
This cooking knife provides a balance of control and cutting length appropriate for vegetables, herbs and smaller pieces of meat. The broad blade allows for efficient transfer of chopped ingredients from board to pan, and the shorter 16 cm cutting edge gives added maneuverability for precise trims and fine slicing. The olive wood handle supplies a warm tactile surface and a secure grip without adding unnecessary bulk. The knife's construction supports daily use in home kitchens where a reliable, multi-purpose blade is needed.
Suitable for
 Slicing and dicing vegetables and fruit
 Chopping herbs and aromatics
 Trimming and portioning small cuts of meat
 Everyday prep tasks in small to medium kitchens
Key specifications
 Blade length: 16 cm
 Blade style: Chai Dao-style broad blade with slight curve
 Handle material: olive wood
 Overall use: all-purpose cooking knife for slicing, chopping and general prep
 Ergonomics: compact profile for improved control and maneuverability
How to use
Use the gude Alpha Chai Dao knife for standard kitchen cutting techniques such as slicing, rocking or push-cut motions depending on ingredient and task. For vegetables and herbs, use a rocking or forward-slicing motion across the board; for small meat trimming and portioning, use controlled chopping or slicing strokes. Keep the blade angled slightly where needed to achieve thin, even cuts and use the broad surface to scoop and transfer food. Maintain a stable cutting board and a secure grip on the handle to ensure consistent results.
Usage recommendations
To preserve the olive wood handle and blade performance, hand wash and dry immediately after use, avoid prolonged soaking, and periodically treat the handle with food-safe oil. Regular honing and occasional professional sharpening will maintain cutting performance. Store the knife in a block, magnetic strip or protective sheath to protect the edge and prevent accidents.
