Fuck off!
A good video that explains a lot. Especially if someone is looking to buy a knife.
I think if you are serious enough to want to buy a quality chef's knife then you should teach yourself proper knife skills. Lots of people I have worked with over the years had awful knife skills and yet they went out and bought some expensive Japanese knives with almost no "belly" to them. They never seemed to improve their speed or consistency with a straight edged knife. They didn't understand the differences between the different types of knives out there and what "features" to look for based on what they were using the knife for.
Also, if you do have a quality knife, I suggest you have at least 1 cheap knife to do all of your chopping with so you don't have to beat the shit out of your good knife.
