I decided that I'd procrastinated long enough and finally took the plunge and bought a decent chef's knife. First impressions are WOW... this thing is an absolute pleasure to cut with. But now I need to get a decent cutting board, wood preferably, one that will be kind to my new knife.
Edit, as a summation from all the advice here, and my size needs, I decided on this Ironwood Gourmet Acacia Wood Square End Grain Chef's Board. My kitchen is very tiny, or I would have gotten the larger one.
In accordance with NotYourMothersDildo's suggestions I'm also getting one of these J.A. Henckels Twin Four Star 10-Inch Honing Steel
As for a place to put them, I'm grabbing one of these MIU 3527 15-Inch Stainless-Steel Magnetic Knife Bar Holder and just because I need a paring knife too, I'm getting one of these Zwilling J.A. Henckels Twin Four Star 4-Inch High-Carbon Stainless-Steel Paring Knives
Thank you all for your advice :-) I'll wait another hour or two incase I get better suggestions, but these are all the items in my cart at the moment....well not 'all' but the ones pertaining to this thread.
> I want to add a smaller 5-6" knife for smaller tasks where a Western 8" is overkill- would this be a petty knife?
'Petty', yes, a larger one. Or a Nakiri which is a vegetable knife and suitable for smaller tasks.
> thinner/faster chef knife
Definitely Gyuto. Around 220mm is my suggestion.
> good starter utility/petty knife
As an experienced western style user I always recommend a 3.5 to 4 inch paring knife. Victorinoxm for cheap, Henckels for more $.
