I bought the Amazon Basics Color-Coded Dishwasher Safe knife set last year, and it's been fine. It costs all of $12.12 for 6 knives and their protective sheaths. They're still very sharp, and I've had no issues with them at all. At that price, they're too good to pass up. I use the bread knife the most, and it's been great. The knives have a good balance, good hand feel, are sharp, and do what I need at a bargain price. If nothing else, they'd hold you over until you could get something better, but I have no desire to replace or upgrade them. They're very good knives.
