Good Starter Set, Look Carefully at Knife Selections
There are really two main competitors in the high-end mainstream kitchen knife market: Henckels and Wusthof. Those who have used both usually have a preference. My preference (and therefore bias you should know about) is for the Wusthofs.

This makes the blade much stronger, and less likely to snap.
