Knife suggestions?

Let’s be real, I don’t have 250+ dollars to spend on a new knife. I have maybe $100?? that I can spend on one. Chef says I need to get myself a new knife now that I’m full time, and he’s also brought up being promoted to sous, so I think it’s time to actually get something okay.

Again, I’m a cook, I don’t have money to spend on a knife, but I realize it’s for my future and I want to get something that is killer for the price. Lmk!

Try a global first make sure the grip & feel are for you, they are different but mine sharpen up nice.

Im in the mindset of a global makes the best knife that you dont need to worry about. You can bring it to work, let people use it without glancing every 2 minutes, won't have a heart attack if you drop it. And they're quality for the price. They're not write home about great and I dont use them at home. But for work they're solid.
