Ryda (pronounced "Ree-Dah") took years of development and fine-tuning before their first knives became exactly what they wanted them to be. This Swedish Company has an obsession with the hardness of the blades, the choice of steels to encase their core steel, and to determine the best-suited grinds to make each knife perfect. As much thought and passion has been put into designing their handles, all aiming to create the sensation of becoming one with your knife. The handles are comfortable in both the left or right hand and are crafted for both professional chefs and home cooks.
The A-30 series is designed for experienced kitchen knife users. Over many years, Ryda meticulously developed these knives with the needs of proficient users in mind.
The knives are tailored to suit those who are accustomed to holding the knife in a ”pinch” grip over the blade and we can tell you they are among the most comfortable knives we've ever held!
The A-30 knives are characterized by their lightweight and well-balanced construction, providing a pleasurable and efficient experience for chefs. Unlike other knives that often lead to discomfort and sore fingers, their design is the culmination of decades of kitchen experience and years of meticulous refinement.
The blades are a 3-layer steel with an Aus-10 steel core, a renowned steel celebrated worldwide for its high performance. With a hardness rating of 60 HRC, it allows for easy sharpening when needed while being sufficiently robust for tasks where hardness is critical. Furthermore, the steel undergoes a vacuum treatment to enhance its durability. The edge is sharpened to 15° on each side.
The handle is crafted from stabilized walnut wood, which attains extra hardness through the vacuum treatment process.
