Having owned many many kitchen knifes... I found that Mercer Genesis is a very very good value for the dollar. It's very affordable, easily available online, use of German steel, keeps a very sharp edge for a long time, forged, and NSF. The only downsides are that it's made in Taiwan, half tang, and it's a little heavier than most knifes. I would rate Mercer Genesis higher than Victorinox knives at similar price points. That said, I've owned that Farberware set before, and it's not very good, and not worth even $20 (unless you have no knives at all).
