Hi
Im in need for new steak knifes and wondering if its worth to pay for "expensive" knife vs cheaper stuff . Obviously I much prefer the look of the fancier one but on the other hand , we are going to cut in porcelain plate and this is going to dull the blade pretty fast . While I can re-sharpen them on my whetstone , im just wondering if its worth the hassle or I should just get something cheap that ill trash when they dont cut anymore .
I need 6 ( 4 could work ) , budget would be ~200usd max .
At the top of that limit we have 4 pieces like Wusthof classic ikon or Shun Classic
In the middle we have the Wusthof gourmet 6 pieces 100$ ish or Messermeister Avanta 4 pieces for ~60$
Not sure in either way i want to go lower , i replacing knife that were worth ~15$ a piece and served us very well for many years ( sanelli premana)
Please share your taught if you think its worth investing or not and your suggestions
Much appreciated
Thanks
