Butchers' knives

[VSS]

Can anyone recommend a reasonably priced set of butchery knives? Not cheapo stuff, but nothing fancy either.
My current assorted collection have been accumulated piecemeal over the years, but none are particularly good, so thought I'd just start again from scratch.

(edit: Perhaps I should have posted this in the butchery section? Admin, feel free to move it if you think that would be more appropriate).

My retired Butcher friend recommended the Victorinox knives...like my rifles they are potentially more effective than me!

Scott Rea project will tell you everyrhibg you need to know



My preference is for Victorinox but F.Dick knives excellent and I have a couple of porrtuguese knives (ICEL) which are pretty good value.

None seem to keep an edge like victorinox though.

A 5/6” semi flex boning knife can do the lot.

Victorinox boning knife and a big knife is all you need, take it you have cleaver, bone saw and steel?

I've got Victorinox knives atm, if I was starting my amateur butchery again I would look at Victory knives from New Zealand. The pros are recommending them as a cost effective option.

Lots of places (such as Nisbets) sell chef's knife sets, but butcher's knives seem to be sold individually. I was hoping to find a handy little set of 3 or 4 knives together.
