The "cheap" henkels are still quality knives. And I use every knife in the block pretty regularly except the breadknife.

I got it on Amazon Black Friday when I moved to NY. It was a compromise because I didnt want to shell out the shekels for the good Henkels.

Used every day for over a decade and still work excellent. This is after abusing them for the first five years before understanding how to use a steel correctly and keep them honed. The only thing that sucks about the set is the scissors. They are too stiff and not sharp enough.

Also a fan of Victorinox. Fibrox specifically. It's what my mom used for decades in commercial kitchens. Some things just work fine at reasonable prices and don't need to pay a premium.
I think my kitchen scissors (Henkels maybe) cost more than my Victorinox chef knife. Because it was needed to pay more a better product.
Mercer bread knife I think, because despite being cheap as hell, it's great.
Victorinox Fibrox are hard to beat for actual function (which I don't begrudge a statement/status set of knives, just Fibrox set isn't that, but work).

If cost is a concern, this, absolutely.
For me its a Chefs knife, whats labeled "Petite Chef" in that image. I pretty much only use that for anything. Everything else is specialty purpose - bread knife, boning knives, etc.
I'd be content with a good Chefs knife and whatever random crap for the other knives that get used rarely.
