I have used alot of different brands over the years...henkel, wustoff, mircle blade, Wal-mart $24.99 39 piece set with free block, and two have risen to the top.

Cutco. Made in the USA and garanteed for ever, including free sharpening from the factory. Some of the best cutlery ever made. Their ambidextrous handle design (I'm a lefty) is actually on exhibit in the Muesem of Modern Art as one of the centuries most inovative engineering designs? They make those handles out of a bowling ball like material.

Sabatier. This is a French cutlery smithing outfit preferred by some of the most revered of chefs in the world. Alot come from France, sure, and those French are rediculously nationalistic (how else do you explain any renault, peugot, or citroen EVER being sold

), but in this case Sabatier makes some of the best stuff there is. One really awesome thing Sabatier does is they make odd sized and unique knives. Right in line with the model you own...all those strange, peculiar, interesting tools you rarely need are available for your variety.
