I have the takohiki in 240, for baby octopus I guess 
Really like Shinichi's knives, always have. They were my first step into the world of low production/handmade knives, and while I have seen a few others along the journey, I would not hesitate to buy another Watanabe knife. And with the current exchange rate, his prices have become really good again.

Thanks for the words everybody. Shinichi Watanabe really delivers for the $$$ IMO too.
Congratulations sausage, I was eyeing that deba too. Norm says you've been tearing up the poultry! Nice pickup!
Apicius9, I considered 240 but have a takeda yanagiba in that length. Thought I would go bigger, especially with the squared point.
I had read that the lack of a tip on these knives owes to feudal days when pointing a knife at one's master was a criminal act. Seems a clever move if it is true.
