A precise chef knife designed for demanding users
Discover the A-30 Ryda Knives chef's knife! This model is designed for precision, lightness and ease of use. As part of the A-30 series, it has been designed to meet the expectations of discerning amateurs and experienced users looking for a reliable everyday tool.
This Ryda San Maï kitchen knife is distinguished by its balance and maneuverability. It's ideal for chopping, slicing and chiseling with fluidity and precision. Its light weight and well-thought-out design allow you to work for long periods without discomfort.
A San Maï blade for fine, controlled cutting
The 20.5cm blade is based on a San Maï structure, composed of 3 layers of steel. The steel core is protected by two softer outer layers, providing a good compromise between performance and strength.
The core is made of AUS-10 Japanese stainless steel, enriched with around 1.05% carbon, for a fine, precise cutting edge. It is surrounded by layers of 316 and 316L stainless steel, providing protection and durability.
The blade benefits from cryogenic treatment, which improves the internal structure of the steel and achieves a hardness of around 60 HRC. The result is an efficient cutting edge that's easy to maintain.
Theflat cutting edge facilitates blade insertion into food, ideal for clean, even cuts. The satin polish gives a discreet finish while limiting visible marks.
The blade has a rounded heel that significantly improves ease of use: the index finger is naturally positioned in the hollow near the bolster, offering better control. This makes it easy to alternate between rapid vertical cutting and swinging movements, while reducing fatigue.
Weighing just 178g, this knife favors fluidity of movement over force, for more precise, less tiring cutting.
An elegant and robust stabilized walnut handle
The handle is made from stabilized walnut wood, vacuum-treated to improve strength. This process strengthens the wood's structure and makes it more durable in the face of humidity and variations. Walnut adds an elegant touch to the kitchen, with a unique grain on each piece. It also offers a pleasant feel, enhancing comfort over long periods of use.
Its slim, slightly domed shape provides a firm, natural grip. It holds the knife securely and limits slippage, improving the precision of gestures.
The handle is adorned with a beveled green and gold ring, providing a neat finish to the bolster. The bolster is made of stainless steel. It improves overall balance, while the bevelled mosaic base reinforces the high-end character of the whole.
