Rada Cutlery
FROM HUMBLE BEGINNINGS
Our story begins in 1948. The war was over, and aluminum and steel were no longer needed to help the war effort. That’s when the manufacturing of our aluminum handle kitchen knives started in earnest from a humble family-owned business in Iowa.
Lots has changed since then, but we’re still family owned and operated, and those knives have become famous. As a matter of fact, some of our original silver handle knives – Regular Paring, Steak/Utility, and Slicer – are still in production!
Today we continue to bring you that same made-in-the-USA quality in ALL types of products, from dozens of outstanding knives to commercial-grade pans and so much more. As our journey continues, we invite you to be part of our story.
AMERICAN CRAFTSMANSHIP
Every one of our products is handcrafted in the heart of the USA, with materials only from America. Our strong heritage and Midwest values assure dependability you can believe in and sharp good looks you’ll be proud to have in your home.
For more than 70 years, we’ve been crafting knives that stand the test of time. Our blades are created with surgical-quality, T420 high-carbon stainless steel and each is meticulously hand-sharpened to a razor-sharp edge. We build each with the highest expectations… a lifetime of use, guaranteed.
GENERATIONS OF FANS
Longtime fans of Rada know this: they wouldn’t dream of stocking their kitchens with anything but Rada products. And not just because their grandmas and moms used Rada too, but because they know Rada offers the best knives at the best value.
Every single day, we are blessed to have customers reach out to tell us how much they enjoy using our products. Our thanks to them for continually building us up. And, for anyone who uses our products and then tells their friends and family about this great little knife company in Iowa, we think you’re pretty great too.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS — HAND WASH VS. DISHWASHER
Our silver brushed aluminum handle cutlery should only be hand washed and dried immediately. Proper washing and care will maximize the beauty and performance of your cutlery. Hand washing prevents unnecessary microscopic dings on the blades’ cutting edge.
Recent government mandated changes to phosphate-free dishwashing detergents creates a harsh environment for metals — including stainless steel blades and in particular our brushed aluminum handles.
Dishwashers have evolved to higher temperatures for cleansing and drying that is incompatible with fine cutlery.
Some customers choose to use the dishwasher with varying results depending on their detergent, water mineral composition and dishwasher. The combination of these three factors affect the pace and degree of oxidation experienced.
