It looks that way but the carrot cutting video comparison was quite convincing that the Konosuke Fujiyama more than holds it's own.
 
I thought the same, but odds be damned, I got it in blue 1

I think PayPal was key
Have you used the Kaiju yet? What do you think about it? My first Konosuke Fujiyama in Blue #2 patina'ed like crazy at first then I waxed it with Renaissance Wax once and it just leveled out at that point, how does the Kaiju patina?

I’ve used mine (blue 1) in a pro kitchen off and on (light days when it’s mostly just me around). Patina set up quick and very well, solid and colourful.

Well it's not light for a 240mm edge neither. North of that you're switching to Yo handle basically, unless looking into hardcore Sanjo or rarities that will weight 200-250g with a basic Ho. And still an ebony handle would drive such weight only 30-50 grams upward. Since the Kaiju grind is going quite thin, 225g feels like Yoshikane beefier ballpark with a righteous handle and blade height. I wouldn't look down on one.

Not as bad as Kono FM blue 2. But you have to be careful
