The things I use the most are my knives, cutting boards, and spring loaded tongs.

Reading through this I will add very sharp scissors and butcher paper

Some system to sharpen that knife you got. Once I started getting kitchen knives razor sharp, my prep work took a quantum leap. I prefer Arkansas whetstones and a smooth steel. I know that’s not everyone’s cup of tea, just my choice as I enjoy sharpening that way. Get something that works for you and gets em shaaaarp.

I love my salad shooter. I have had it for years and it comes in handy for all kinds of things. I use it for grating cheese, shredding veggies like potatoes for hash browns, carrots for a carrot salad, etc.

A few months back I bought one of these tabletop cheese graters and find myself using it about once a week. We buy block cheese and shred it fresh, I've used it to slice sweet potatoes for homemade chips, sliced cucumbers for pickles, shredded carrots for slaw, etc. Nifty little thing to have.

Serious Eats and Cooks Illustrated/America's Test Kitchen provide excellent reviews, recommendations, and testing of kitchen equipment. SE is free/Cooks is subscription. I recommend utilizing those resources to help figure out what you might need.
Here's what I find handy...
Infrared thermometer for surface temps
Thermapen
Bench scraper
Fish spatula
Offset spatula
Zester/grater
Spider strainer
Saucier - maybe my most used pan in the kitchen. I have 4qt at All Clad
Quarter sheet tray - I used the smaller pan for prepping meats or smaller veggie trays. Good balance with the large half sheets
Carbon steel pan

Garlic press
I also have a slap chopper which also dices and it's a big time saver for me. Try dicing two dozen tomatopes by hand and you'll want one.
