I wholeheartedly agree Jenn, that you get what you pay for. My set of Calphalons, while not the best money can buy, are sufficient for the average Joe, and will last me a lifetime. The problem that a lot of people have, and is the reason they look for an easy out, is keeping those knives sharp enough to please them through their daily activities. That's the reason I love those new knives, although they are cheap, they are incredibly sharp, and with an application for every situation, are very versatile in the kitchen. So unless you are a professional Chef, or an avid cook, they really work quite well. And, if they start to dull up or break,, you can go to a website and they will replace them. Or you buy another set next year.
Hunting knives are a completely different story, so much garbage out there. You really have to spend some coin to get anything decent anymore. A lot of knives are built well, but come up short in the steel they use in their blades IMO. Some of the Navy Seal type knives are decent.
