Ordered a 270mm shigehiro and it arrived today. Ootb I was quite worried. It has a Massive Katoesque spine, and weighs 264 grams.
But once I broke it out at work I knew it would be a keeper. Very comfortable well ground knife with heft. It’s alot of fun to use and the lack of wedging for a knife with this much thickness really surprised me.
Craig @ carbonknife picked out a lefty friendly one for me. It actually looks like it was ground for a left handed user. Very exciting!

Congrats! I'm sure you'll enjoy it for a long time!
 
I agree that one looks even more lefty friendly than the one you linked. Looks sexy and I'm guessing it cuts great in spite of the kato hips;)
