I see a Gesshin Uraku every now and then for sharpening. The primary bevels are right biased but I'm not remembering for sure if the grind was too. Edge retention should be good, toughness/resistance to chipping very good. Thicker behind the edge than what it seems like many folks here consider the 'middleweight' good cutters (Itinomonn, Gengetsu, Wakui, Kochi, Tanaka). Has that gentle continuous curve profile but without large back belly, as seen on some other JKI knives (Ikazuchi, Kochi)
I've read/gotten feedback that the Hiromotos have a fairly right biased grind?
