This is so great! Do you have a recommendation for a solid chef knife or a set for someone who is a novice home cook?

Thanks! Tough to go wrong with Korin, and they have a range of prices. I think you really only need one good chef's knife, one slicer, one pairing knife and one serrated. Here are some recs on the more reasonably priced end:

When I first started as a garde manger the chefs had me chiffonading mint and parsley for hours every day before service. -_-
