I've been tricked by spec sheets before. I had a very kind vendor try and dissuade me from buying a knife that didn't fit my needs, based on the conversation. I bought it anyway. It became a gift to a relative, then I bought one that he recommended. All to say, there is a qualitative difference between the numbers that's part of the joy of nicer knives. People here love to share their experiences, and I don't think anyone here has an interest in any particular shop or line of knives. Anyway, happy hunting!
FWIW, Nihei apparently learned at the Yoshikane shop (from the description you linked), so I'd expect those knives to be damn thin. Another Yoshikane apprentice, Masashi, makes knives with the thinnest tips I've ever seen. Very delicate, but screaming performers if you use the kid gloves.
