Over the years, the A-73 knives have become a signature of what Ryda Knives stands for—refined performance, purpose-driven design, and materials that age with grace. With ST650 steel at the core, French olive wood in hand, and a grind that scores above 840 on the CATRA test, this series is a tribute to the chefs who live by their tools.
The A-73 series from Ryda Knives is the most high-end collection we have created, with each knife designed for its specific purpose. For example, our chef knife has a balance point higher up on the blade to benefit a high pinch grip, while our slicing knife has a balance point further back to support a sturdier grip on the handle combined with a light pinch grip.
The handles are made from smooth French olive wood, and for the blade we use our custom ST650 steel as the core material. With our grind, we achieve a score above 840 on the CATRA test. This series is designed for professional chefs, especially those who have been in the industry for a while and are looking to upgrade their knives. However, they are also perfect for new chefs who want to start their career with a set they can keep for many years to come.The handles are made from smooth French olive wood, and for the blade we use our custom ST650 steel as the core material.
