Forschner Knife

A question for chefs!?

I will be starting my culinary labs this Spring. I need to purchase my knives very soon and I am not sure what kind to buy. I will probably mix and match my set, but I am not sure what brand to lean towards. The sous-chef at work suggested Forschner and I use them at work, so I am pretty used to the way they feel. I like the way the Global chef knife feels in my hand, but have heard that they can be fragile.

Go with whatever you are most compfortable with, also don’t spend too much money on your first set, most people I know either destroy their knives in school, or they are stolen. Forschener is a perfect place to start in my oppinion, if you buy anything too expensive you will be heart broken when you turn your back and someone borrows one to open a can or something.
