A group of friends clubbed together a while back for my 30th and got me a set of Pro Cook X100 knives (3.5in paring knife, 5in utility knife, 8in chefs knife) and was wondering what the general consensus is on how good they are. From my own research hardened steel is long lasting but quite brittle, does this mean that I'm at more risk of messing them up trying to sharpen on stones by myself?

I'm in the market for a bread knife, based on this thread can I assume I'm all good just getting a Victorinox like this one? https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B000AR7A38/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_Xg-fFbP2S7B6F
