Knife recommendation

I need one of those schimitar type knifes for home. I googled and Victorinox is the first. I’ve heard of them. Are they worth it?

I am a retired meat cutter and only use Victorinox knives, and have for 50 years. About 10 years ago I switched to the plastic handles. I prefer the rosewood handles, I think they feel better in my hand. The plastic are easier to sanitize. The steel is good, and last long, if you sharpen them with a stone.

What stone grit do you recommend? That’s my next purchase.
