Alton had some lower end Shun knives, actually a great deal. I think they had a 7pc set for $200 :thumbsup

Had a set of Henkel's for 10 years. Great knives.

I've never seen the purpose of having a set of 15 knives - I've never known anyone to be that dynamic in the kitchen ;)

IMHO, all you need is a very good 10" / 20cm (like the ones I linked) an a small pearing knife. The only other addition I've ever needed was a cleaver (but chinese style - light)

No need to spend a fortune :)

I tend to agree. About 4 or 5 knives total. A fish knife, meat cleaver, chef's & pearing...

well, i agree that one doesn't need a zillion knives,

but a good bread knife is essential

and i prefer two kinds of paring knives...one serrated, one not....

a chef's knife --- actually two because both of us cook together....

fish knife, cleaver and a damned good set of steak knives...

Nah, then you need a whetstone. They're not complicated either :)

:error

A whetstone is a sharpener is it not? I own a very nice Japanese water stone. It's great for small blades, but I prefer a ceramic rod type system for larger knives. No error, easy, and perfect angle every time.
