Frequently Asked Questions

Q What makes Rada Cutlery so sharp?
A Our knife blades are constructed using a specially formulated T420 High Carbon Stainless Steel. The results are two fold: first, the formulation helps ensure our ability to apply the initial razor sharp edge to your cutlery and secondly, the formulation maximizes the edge retention properties as you use it in your kitchen.

Q My Grandma had knives that look like Rada Cutlery - were they?
A We hear this comment quite often. Yes, it is possible that "this is the knife your grandmother used" as we have been manufacturing aluminum handle cutlery since 1948.

Q Are the knives dishwasher safe?
A It is best to hand wash and dry all cutlery. Government mandated phosphate-free detergents as well as the newer dishwashers designed to wash in higher temperatures with less water can prove much harsher on your handle finish and damaging to your sharpened edge. Because of this we strongly urge you to hand wash and dry all of your Rada Cutlery.

Q What makes the Vegetable Peeler so sharp?
A Our Vegetable Peeler blade was designed with a proprietary sharpening process that took us three years of testing to develop. Hard work pays off!

Q I've never seen a knife that can cut tomatoes so thin! What makes the tomato slicer different?
A Unlike other types of cutlery, our carefully designed blade is both hollow ground plus serrated on both sides. The results allow you to be incredibly accurate with a remarkably sharp knife whether you are right or left-handed. All of this leads to amazing results!
