About Ryda Knives
Since childhood, I've cherished time in the kitchen, learning alongside my father. It's no surprise I pursued a career as a chef, driven by my fascination with flavors and culinary techniques. In 2014, I launched my first cookbook to share my fusion cooking and inspire others. This venture ignited my entrepreneurial spirit, leading me to explore diverse collaborations worldwide.
Unexpectedly, my interest turned to crafting functional, elegant knives—a passion cultivated since my early kitchen days. For nearly six years, I meticulously refined my Damascus knives to perfection. Each blade's essence, from hardness to steel composition and grinding, demanded exhaustive testing. Equally important was designing ergonomic handles that enhance knife control, catering to both professionals and amateur chefs alike.
I aimed for knives that empower users in the kitchen - a tool for culinary triumphs or a meaningful gift for any food enthusiast.
