Tojiro DP is outstanding value
Pros: sharp ootb, sharpens easily, holds edge well, balanced extremely well
Cons: have major callous from constant use
I own Misono UX10, Shun, and Tojiro. Not quite as sharp as the Shun or Misono ootb, but with a little work on the 1k stone it can be even sharper than the Misono but with a little more heft and rigidity, which I love. I work in the kitchen of a major luxury hotel brand and It just seems to get better with heavy use. Overall theTojiro DP is amazing for the price.
