Ive been getting recommendations and researching for the past few days, I think ive narrowed it down to 2 knives.

Being my first Japanese knife I guess my question is, are there any big differences between these two knifes to warrant the increase in price? Im in a spot where im fine paying the increase in price if it gets me a bump in quality, comfort, durability, edge retention etc. but im too new to really know what to look for.
These were also in the running and open to any other suggestions.
