> Budget around $100 and am in the US. Looking for a 7 or 8 inch knife
Uh sorry, but for that budget I can line you up for a set of knives :-)
No joke, I could kit out your kitchen in knives for a c note!
100 bucks for a single 8" chef's knife is way overkill for the average home cook. You neither need nor really want what a knife at that price point versus a similar type of knife in a lower price bracket, unless aesthetics are a significant part of your choosing criteria.
OK so I'll suggest a few things here in a sort of scattergun approach, see if anything takes your fancy. Nothing I'm going to recommend is expensive, but some of these are dirt cheap so you could get one or more others in addition to your main pick to have some beater knives around that you don't have to care about.
First bunch are commercial style chef's knives โ no frills, moulded handles.
Mundial 8" chef's knife for $15.70 on Amazon. If you want to go up a size, the !" version for $26.88.
Dexter-Russell 10" for $19.37 on Amazon. The 8" is more than this currently for some reason.
Victorinox Fibrox three-piece bundle (3.25" parer, 8" chef knife and steel) for $52.67 on Amazon. This is great value if you're interested in the Victorinox chef's knife because at its current price it means you're getting the parer and the steel for 10 bucks.
If you don't mind white handles, Mercer cutlery 8" chef's knife for $10.32 on Grainger. And if you want to go really big, the 12" model for the "OMG cheap!" price of $15.60 also on Grainger.
Now ones with riveted handles, wood or resin/plastic scales.
8" Walnut Tranditions chef's knife from Chicago cutlery with riveted walnut handle for $17.95.
Victorinox 8" with rosewood handle, $48 on Amazon
Farberware Pro Forged 8" knife for $11.99 on Amazon.
Now a few oddballs.
Super sharp and super cheap, the Thai-made Kiwi knives. These are available in a lot of Asian grocers apparently but if you need to order online the prices are good on Wokshop. These are the greatest buy in the knife world, decent knives literally for pocket change.
And if you're at all interested in trying some knives with carbon steel blades check out the Old Hickory knives which are probably the cheapest ones going. They look a bit weird but they're pretty damn good by all accounts. There's a great five-piece set which is amazing value, on Amazon it's currently $48. Set includes a 3.25" Paring Knife, 4" Paring Knife, 7" Butcher's Knife, 6" Boning Knife and an 8" Slicing Knife.
