Welcome to the forum. i agree with much of your advice (in fact, it's basically what i said 3 pages ago), but i have to disagree with both sets of recommendations. OP is obviously someone who is new to cooking. I love my misono, but i wouldn't recommend it as a beginning cook's workhorse chef's knife. it's really good at what it does, but it's not built to take the kind of abuse a noob is likely to inflict on it.
And as for Murray Carter ... well, yeah. I guess if you're interested in spending $500 to $600 for a chef's knife, then that is a good suggestion.
For OP, I hope you enjoy the Henckels. Not my choice, but I know people who use them and like them.
The knife I linked to is only $150.
