Advice on culinary knives for M's Day

I tried posting this in two other knife subs and didn't get any feedback. I love pocket knifes, but I have no clue about culinary knives. Actually, I suppose any knife can be a culinary knife but anyway... I get that this is probably asked a lot, and I can use google, but I'm lazy and want current info, not a thread from 4 years ago.

With M'day coming up, I'm looking for a nice Chef's knife, Pairing knife, and a Utility knife, and (maybe) 4 or 6 nice Steak Knives to go with it. They don't all have to be the same brand and I don't care about aesthetics (even a Spyderco).

I would like to keep it under $600... maybe a little higher if including some nice Steak knifes. Blades with about equal performance in durability and corrosion, low level of maintenance. If there's too many to list, just tell me your favorites. thanks
