Personally, I love pro s by Henckel. I have 8-9 of them. For me, it is all about weighting. I like the weight of Wusthof/Henckel but found the central weighting of the Henckel best for me. For the same reason I do not have a Santoku, I prefer a standard (I guess) european style chef blade. Recently, I was looking for a 10 inch butchers knife and stumbled on to the brand linked below at my local restaurant supply store. I thought what the hell and bought it. It is a no frills knife (no fancy handles) made by victorinox. Anyway, WHAT A KNIFE! For the price, these things are great (I have since picked up a couple). Serioulsy, for the price you pay for these Forschener knives, I dont think you can get anything close to the sharpness for the price, hell, nothing close to this good for 2-3x the price. Just looking at amazon at all their knives, they are all 4.5/5 stars.
