    Get a good Chef's knife or Santoku knife. I like Global.

    those are fantastic knives for the price.

    but because i'm a girl and like things all pretty, i collect these :

    I love my wusthof knife - the bread knife cuts tomatoes like a DREAM - I use the Sontuku knife for everything else. Go to Williams Sonoma and ask to hold the different knives. I liked some handles better than others - it's a personal thing.

    Wusthof has a lifetime warranty. One of my handles cracked and they sent a replacement.

    Also, read up on the difference between hammered steel and stamped steel blades. Some are more fragile than others. I'm kind of hard on things, so I opted away from hammered steel. It's beautiful though.

    For a good chef knife I would go with Japan made over German made. For set's I'm really not sure. Shun's are cool but I end up USING my Global and just LOOK at my Shun.

    I purchased a set of Cutco knives about six months ago and I am totally pleased.
    My Father bought his about 15 years ago and still uses them.
    My only complaint is that I was three glasses of rum into it when the guy came to sell them to me and I ended up purchasing a VERY nice K-Bar that I really didn't need (but love anyway)
