They aren't the best, but they are small, light, and get the job done.
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!
Thanks! I think I will try the wood burning. I'll try it out on a scrap piece first just to check.
I haven't bought a leather strop but I cut up and glued a piece of my old jeans onto a 8" block of wood and bought this: (https://www.amazon.com/Woodstock-D2902-1-Pound-Buffing-Compound/dp/B0000DD35C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1468086393&sr=8-1&keywords=green+sharpening+compound)
So far it seems to be working well. My knife still can pass the paper test. I have had a few nicks in the knife after dropping it once but I used a Accusharp Knife and Tool Sharpener we had at home:
(https://www.amazon.com/AccuSharp-1-001-Knife-Sharpener/dp/B00004VWKQ)
It made it nice and sharp again without the nicks but I don't know if it's good to use for the knife. I'd like to learn how to use a wetstone eventually to sharpen my knife but will probably practice on my Leatherman's knife before I try it on the Mora just so I don't mess it up.
