BEST KNIFE SET FOR COLLEGE UNDER 100 POUNDS?
I need a set of knifes (1st set) and im on a budget. The college offers a full set of knives and kitchen stuff in a suitcase for 88 pounds, however im on the search for a better knife set for similar money.
I have a quick look and im thinking of getting a starter set in canvas bag, perhaps Victorinox and then buying a large chefs knife to go with it.
Any suggestions of brands to avoid would be appreciated
* I am not at Uni. I am attending a college. Supermarket knifes are not allowed, its a professional chef course.
I would not buy a set at all, I would buy individual knives and make up my own set. When you buy a set all too often some of the knives are good and some less good because the people who decide what knives go into a set are not usually chefs so they really don’t know what is best. If you are on a budget you can buy less knives but better quality and add to them when you can afford it.
I have been out of the trade for a while now but I used to use mainly Victorinox, Sabatier and Emile Gustav.
