do you have a favorite knife?

i want to buy a good chef's knife but can't decide which one to buy.

i know every ones are different but makes me wondered what kind of knives people are using.

i'm thinking about shun, global or wuthof, maybe 9 or 10 inch!

anyone used them before?

    hi Maxerbear,

    great to hear who used all of knives i'm thinking of, thanks to share your experience!

    i looked amazon and seems like shun is a great knife, but are they difficult to sharpen?

    joannabanana,

    i had a chance to use cutco's knives before and i loved them too, but i just didn't want to deal with there special way to sell knives...

    i wasn't thinking about to look at ebay, thats great idea!

    thank you, i'll take a look!

    Lyn_goes_green,

    i have a 6" ceramic knife and i think this is a good knife but maybe because the size(littel too short for me) and i think i'm little afraid to use them feel like i need be super careful with this knife to not drop(i mean i won't drop any knives but i don't wanna worry about it) or i won't crush garlic etc......i need my knife to be strong for a everyday use.

    i went to william sonoma and tried shun, global, wuthof.

    then bought a shun 10" chef's knife, yay!

    thanks Maxerbear!

    i'll send my knife to the place you recommend, so now i can just enjoy chopping vegetables everyday!

    i used cuisinart and calphalon's knife at friends's house recently and they are actually pretty good, it was sharp, okay balance, good price.

    i use nakiri knife at home and loves them (i never sharpen them before in 5 years and they are still super sharp, bought them in japan has name on it says "seki") but i just love 10" chefs for long hour job.
