Sharpness as a promise. The A73 3 piece set unites three blades—slicing, utility, and paring, each forged with a core of ST650 powder steel wrapped in 73 layers of Damascus. With a cryo-hardened edge at 63 HRC, they deliver unmatched precision and lasting sharpness.

Handles of figured olive wood bring warmth and balance, making every cut both effortless and inspired. From carving roasts to preparing fruit, this set is designed for those who value detail, durability, and the quiet elegance of true craftsmanship.

The A73 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.
