Sorry, buddy, but I'm going to say it. Don't buy a knife set. It's not because of quality, it's because knife sets always have something in there you don't want (waste of money) and often don't have something you do want.

Get this 8" Chef's Knife for about $62

Get this 4" boning/utility knife (that also can pass as a paring knife) for about $25

And you're probably set for 95% of what you want to do.

Both are Victorinox with Fibrox handles. Hardly a day goes by that I don't do something with that Chef's knife

Since you have a little left over . . . .

Get this sharpener for about $10, and then get yourself a steel something like this one (nothing fancy) and learn to use it.

It's all on Amazon, so you will have yourself a "set" in about 5-10 minutes, depending on how much you like reading reviews.

Cheers!
