I like the Victorinox fibrox knives. My meat slicer was the expensive one at about $50, but I just love the non-slip fibrox handles.
I've been happy with my Henckels Classic set. Added a a Victorinox brisket slicer that I love as well. Oh and I started using one of the 7" Bubba Blade filet knives as well. So much better handle. Definitely don't get as fatigued as if I were using my Henckels.
How does the Bubba hold up? I've heard that once they lose an edge, it's tough to keep them sharp? I do a ton of fishing, but I've held off buying one for that reason.
However, I've heard so much about them in the fishing world that I'm tempted to try one.
I don't own a set of knives- no real point. I have a chef knife, a boning knife and a paring knife - all Victorinox- not sexy, not pricey but completely serviceable. I also own a granton blade slicer as long as my forearm- no idea what the hell I was thinking.
If I can't get it done with those- I can't get it done.
This thread got me googling around looking at knives as I'm looking to finally buy some decent ones. Williams Sonoma appears to have all their Wusthof's and some other brands on sale at the moment. I'm not familiar with what the street price normally is but might be worth checking out... their 6 piece BBQ knife set is $279.

Walk on. Not as good a deal as you might think it is.
