Hi. I know a friend who is really into Japanese knives, and he's been looking at getting a thin-middleweight Gyuto to add to his set. However, the pandemic has hit him hard, so any plans for that were put on hiatus for the moment, but as his birthday is coming up, I thought I would get him a nice surprise. The three options listed above are all knives that I've came across that I think would fit into what he wants. The YS and SKD seem fairly similar, and some research leads me to believe they both are made by Yoshikane, and out of the two, the YS probably would be more to his taste looks-wise. So the final decision comes down to the YS and the Gengetsu. What are some of the differences between them, and which one would you personally prefer?
EDIT: As much as I'd like to fill out a questionnaire, I really want to keep it a secret, and he'd obviously figure out what's going on. Hopefully, the knives I've listed gives you a good idea into what he's into, and feel free to ask me about any clarifications. Thanks a bunch!
