Its a lot more work horsey than weight suggests (i have the 210. the handle is light).

If you see the spine in typical sakai fashion it doesn't taper much so its a full wh grind. good forward balance.

Food release is good and the dammy is well polished so there isn't much drag on it because the cladding. Spine isn't as rounded as a Myojin / Kagekiyo but its still comfortable.

Steelwise...I honestly can't tell diff between nakagawa b1 and tanaka b1 (I have done side by side sharpening with a kagekiyo and the nakagawa).

With these though in the few I saw in BST... the bigger they get the F&F & grinds seem to vary.....
