I have some very cheap knives that I use most often. My most expensive
set of knives is 6 made by Chicago Cuttlery. It came as a gift and
with a wooden storing block. I use the large chef's knife and keep it
sharp but most other times, I use cheap $1.oo knives for quick
cutting.

I do realize too the Chicago Cuttlery is not highly rated???

Bottom line...my cheap knives work for me. I don't (and won't) spend
the extra money on the "cool kid" knives like Wusthof or Henkle
(sp>). Good for professional chefs but not necessary for the good
home cook, in my stupid worthless opinion. heheh
