Ryda Knives A-30 Series 205mm (8") Chef's Knife
Ryda Knives A-30 Series 205mm (8") Chef's Knife
Ryda Knives' are brand new & designed and imported from Sweden. The Founder, Viktor Ingemarsson, who was a professional chef that traveled around the world for many years, and who published their first cookbook in 2014, turned to knife design to express quality craftsmanship towards having a good knife. Their hybrid approach strikes a remarkable balance between Japanese and Western knife-making traditions, inspired by Swedish origins.
Ryda's recently launched A-30 Series, was designed with professionals' in mind, but also greatly serving avid home chefs' desires too. The new A-30s were designed more on the traditional Japanese knife-making side of the "hybrid" ledger, in that they are light-weight and given a more slender blade profile to encourage smooth push-cuts and dexterous slicing experience. Double-beveled at 15 degrees on boths sides, the A-30 is not too gyuto-ish - in that it could sufficiently support a rock-chopping approach, which solidifies the hybrid versatility many professionals need in a commercial environment. The more your knife can do, the better.
Ryda designed the A-30 Series with Western walnut Yo handles specifically for those who practice pinch grip to achieve a more efficient & controlled experience. Be sure to maintain the wood with proper oils/conditioners to keep these beautiful knives working well throughout any kitchen job.
