SPECIAL REQUESTS/COMMENTS
I did a little bit research on various knives already.
As for now,I tend to buy JCK Carbonext (1xgyuto or santoku and 1x petty) but I would like to hear your opinion and if there are better knives for that price.
My budget is ~130$ for a gyuto or santoku, ~70$ for a petty or paring.I didnt spent any time to search for a deba or cleaver yet,but I hope there are some good ones for ~100$ or below.
I'm willing to spend a little bit more for each knife,if there is a good knife,thats only few $ more expensive.
If you think I should buy different knives,please let me know
Thanks in advance
