Hey all,
I was wondering if folks with experience with a wider variety of makers and knives could talk a little bit about the strengths of the various 'mighty' gyutos out there that are recommended frequently.
A few of the makers/knives that I'm wondering about include Heiji (Semi-stainless, iwasaki sweden steel), Yoshikane (SKD, Tamamoku), and Watanabe. I know that there are numerous other makers out there making knives that could definitely be thought of as mighty, and I'm not even sure that grouping these makers in a question makes much sense but I figure it could be a good starting off point.
But I'd love to hear your thoughts about geometry, steel, finish, etc.
