Great price on this knife, will run you $90 most places. Combine with another knife to go over $50 and receive a $30 store credit.
Another good deal is the 20cm bread knife for $69.50 buy this first, claim the $30 and then get the utility knife for $14.48

It's quite hard to make a suggestion without knowing your preferred type of knife. If I wanted a cheap knife I'd go for a victorinox, they're cheap, easy to maintain and have a wide range of styles. If you want a seriously cheap knife you can't go past kiwi brand knives. This Ivo looks ok for the price, I've used them before, they're a bit clumsy but damn, 10 bucks for a European made knife?
Sorry, that knife is $20. Still crazy cheap. After discount they're $39 from our supplier.
As magnafunk said, go for Victorinox. I believe they make the swiss army knives and their knives are excellent for the price!
Another vote for Victorinox as a decent budget knife.
I'd suggest staying away from Kiwi knives though, they use cheap crappy steel that's difficult to sharpen and doesn't hold an edge.
Victorinox are good, but really it's worth going into a knife shop and trying them. I was going to order a victorinox online since I like the one my brother has, but I checked my local knife store and found that I much preferred the Icel chef knife - it was just more comfortable to use.
And i can't stand the Icel, the handle feels quite square in the hand after 10 minutes use, which reinforces the fact that you should go try a few out, what we suggest may not suit you
if 100 bucks fits your definition of cheapish I'd have a look at Tojiro DP gyuto on ebay. I think they come in 210mm, 240mm and 270mm.. depending on what size you like.
Sharp brand can be good, usualy a 20 or 25 chef will cost you $20.the 20 is about as wide in blade as a victorinox broad blade 20cm, German steel, sharpens easy.
If it was for me id buy a cheap knife like the sharp 25cm chef knife for $20, a op shop bread knife for 10cent-$1 a victorinox paring knife for bout $8 and a accusharp knife sharpener for $20. Add a cheap knife steel and for 50-60 bucks its every knife id need and a way to maintain.
Dont use accusharp on expencive knives as it takes more metal off though.
Hey the Ikea 1 piece knife is pretty good to. I got a full set and love them. I don't need to be as gentle when sharpening them as when I am sharpening Globals.
Looking for a cheapish but reasonable quality chef's knife, any suggestions?
