A-73 is Ryda Knives’ most premium knife series, with each knife carefully designed for its specific purpose. For example, the chef’s knife has its balance point high up on the blade to support a high pinch grip.

The handles are made from smooth French olive wood, offering not only an elegant appearance but also a comfortable feel in the hand. The blades use Ryda Knives’ proprietary ST650 steel as the core material, and with their grind, they achieve a score of over 840 in the CATRA test – meaning exceptional sharpness and edge retention.

This series is especially aimed at professional kitchens and experienced chefs looking for a reliable upgrade to their tools. At the same time, the knives are also suitable for aspiring chefs who want to invest in a quality knife set that will last for years.

NOTE!

A quality knife requires the treatment it deserves. Do not wash the knife in a washing machine. After use, wash with warm water. Dry in a towel and store in a magnet or knife rack. Do not twist anything with the knife, and the general recommendation is that it not be used to cut sticks, bones, or frozen meat. This will avoid chipping the blade and breaking the tip.
