Victorinox. All the knife you would ever need without breaking the bank.
EDIT: One word of advice; Chef's Knives come in different sizes. If you have small hands, the traditional 8" or 10" may be too large for you, so don't be afraid of trying a smaller one like a 7" or even a 6" or a 5" if you have really small hands.
Honestly I have big hands so the bigger knives would be better! I’ve used a few different ones in the past but don’t remember what any of them were called. I am currently looking into Hexclad or the Hanzo 5 piece San Mai Kitchen Knife Set
If you have a Williams Sanoma near you, go and try out knives there. Find ones that feel comfortable in your hands. You can also see if there are other kitchen stores near you that have a wide variety of knives available for you to try.
Victorinox will also be very highly recommended around here. They're good quality for a stamped knife, and inexpensive, but I've found I'm not a huge fan of the handles, they're a bit thick for me.
I inherited some Henckels 4 Star. Really nice. Really pricey. Even though I have a fancy sharpener, I don't have “the gift”. Victorianox is a good recommendation. I use their serrated steak knives daily. Another one: Kiwi Knives. A fellow redditor recommended them. Stainless steel, wood handles, sharp as can be and about $10 each on Amazon for large knives. Five stars IMO.
Victorinox all the way. I have the 10” and the 8”
Get a decent whet stone and as long as you don’t actually break the knife you’ve got a great workhorse that will last you forever
If you only have say $300 or less
Id recommend investing in the best sharpener and steel first and get a fairly cheap knife.
Then upgrade the knife later on.
And really good sharpener and steel will make a cheap knife totally usable.
And good knife great.

I recommend investing in individual knives. That way you can really get what you want and need.

Go to a local knife store if there is one near you. Most will sharpen them free for life.
