Together they have been vacuum-treated for long-lasting sharpness, with a Rockwell hardness of 62-63 HRC for exceptional strength and edge retention.  The edges are double-beveled at 15° as are some of the best Japanese grinds.  The beautiful French olive wood handles have been dried and conditioned to ensure a durable lifespan.  Their shape delivers comfort and control, with ergonomics that both novices and experts can appreciate.  All Ryda handles are comfortable in either the left or right hand.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe chef’s knife is the workhorse of the kitchen, the most used knife in professional and home kitchens.
