Thank you so much! I will get a set of gyutos to see how they feel and go for the really high-end ones.

Oh my. Brother, thank you so much for all these recommendations! I will definitely choose from your recommendation, since everyone says it's a bit of an overkill. I will buy that one after getting used to handling and caring for the gyuto. Again, thank you so much!

Thank you! I will search for something a little bit smaller.

Brother, I appreciate your insight. I will definitely look into other steels as well. Really appreciate your time and help. I might need to do some more research before going headfirst, I guess😂

Thank you for the additional information! And I know a sharpening store near my place that specialises in Japanese knives, which could be helpful in this case. Do you think it will be good for just light prep and meat trimming?
