There is nothing like a true straight sharp edge on quality steel in a well-balanced knife. If you cook much at all (I don't mean heating frozen or boxed processed food-like substances), you'll love good knives.
Boker (also from the City of Blades, like Wusthof, Henckel, etc) makes nice knives, too.

I grew up cooking with cheap crap which worked fine because we didn't bash it around. I currently have a crock of wooden spoons and a few cheap one or two-piece plastic tools which I've come to use for most tasks (silicon or nylon things from OXO, Norpro, etc). They often have injection molding seams to razor off and they're not heirlooms... but they work.
