best place to start is knife skills. this book is incredibly useful. depending on his hand size and how comfortably he can grip the knives you have, may want to consider something like this just for starters so he can get a feel for comfortably working with a knife.
That exact knife (not even joking) has been on my amazon wish list for 4 years... Worth the $120?
Edit: 95% sure this is the right one, this is what's been serving me faithfully for quite some time https://www.amazon.com/Kuhn-Rikon-Colori-Chefs-6-Inch/dp/B00D096UMU/ref=sr_1_1?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1482339026&sr=1-1&keywords=kuhn+rikon+knife
I've got a (hodgepodge) set of Hecknel blades from a yard sale that are gathering dust because a) the large knives are way too big, b) I never use Filet knives, and c) need some serious sharpening because they're duller than a beige party baloon
It's one of these, but with a slightly different blade shape
I like Kuhn Rikon since they're both sharp and cheap. They might not be the top knives on the market, but they're a great value and you can buy an accompanying sharpener designed for its blade that's easy to use. I've been using mine for years, and the sharpener keeps the blade sharp if I sharpen them about once a month.
