I currently have no need for a single bevel knife.
I do have a nenohi (i think w2) 240mm tana that I don't use that often.
I also have a 210 laser thin aebl gyuto that is shoty so I have almost a sujihiki there.
So that means I want to buy a knife!
Can someone you ll me the pros and cons of a yanagiba, takobiki and fugihiki?
From what I get, fugihiki is a more nimble/thin/shorter yanagi, and takobikis are more fragile due to their height?
Is there a reason that we don't see any newer steels in single bevel knives like sg2, hap40 etc?
I'm really dazzled by the looks of a sakimaru takobiki. Will I regret it?
Could I use a softer metal yanagiba and do some small fish filleting if I need it ( sardines, mackerel)
Thank you for your answers!
