Knife size is very personal. I like a 10 myself for a chef's knife,. I have 8 inch "utlity" knives I use on cantaloupe and vegies. I find 6" knives too small in general except for a boning knife and for a santoku, though a 6.5-7 is even better in the Santoku for ME.

One size is not better than the other, it's what works right for you. Go hold some.

There are a number of decent stainless pans on the market. I've got a 12" sauteuses/casserole and a 6 quart pot from Tramontina that I like a lot. They were $20-25 each at Costco. Seconds are fine too. I also have a bunch of cast iron which can also be had cheaply.
