I will be starting my culinary labs this Spring. I need to purchase my knives very soon and I am not sure what kind to buy. I will probably mix and match my set, but I am not sure what brand to lean towards. The sous-chef at work suggested Forschner and I use them at work, so I am pretty used to the way they feel. I like the way the Global chef knife feels in my hand, but have heard that they can be fragile.
Does any one out there have suggestions about knives? Or even a website that gives pretty good comparisons or even customer reviews about knives?
Thanks!
