What style kitchen knife would you recommend if I can not pay a whole?
When I went to the store or Web sites covered, they had knives like peeling kitchen, chef (various lengths), utilities, santoku, slicing, boning, bread, carving, bird beak, and more. What is the most versatile knife? What brand do you like? What is good steel for kitchen knives?
A santoku and a chef's knife (also known as a French knife) are the two types of knives are good knives, multipurpose and most frequently used in professional kitchens. For a beginner, I recommend getting a French knife, boning knife, kitchen knife, a bread knife and a steel. The knives you mentioned are a little more specialized, with the exception of the knife. Utility knives can be used for anything, but so can a French knife ... so really does not need a knife. Never have owned one and really do not see the need for them. Unless you plan to work in a professional kitchen and / or go to culinary school, then just stick to the four knives I mentioned. The good brands, professionals include: Henckel, Wustof, Global, Forschner, Global, etc (to name a few). I personally recommend buying a French knife and try World. If you like it, you can buy some more of Globals. They tend to stay in shape for a long time. Global steel are good, too. I also suggest you buy a whetstone good practice sharpening their own knives. It is not hard to do if the practice. Steels used to "straighten" a leaf, not sharpen a blade. "Straightening a leaf" means that steel is used to bring back a good advantage in a knife and strong. Steels do not work on dull knives. There are plenty of good sharp knife videos in youtube, if you do not know how to tune one.
