Wasted $60 on a cheap boning knife I had to replace in a month

I bought a no-name boning knife off Amazon for about $60 thinking I was saving money over the German brands. The steel was so soft the edge rolled after just a few pork shoulders, and the handle started wobbling by week three. I ended up buying a Victorinox for $45 after that and it's been solid for six months now. Anyone else learn the hard way that cheap tools cost more in the long run?

My friend nearly lost a finger on a cheap Walmart knife last month.
