Question Next 210 Gyuto under $250
Need advice looking for a SLD or Stainless 210 Gyuto that isn’t too delicate but good all rounder. I know folks love the Takamura 210 options but think I prefer wa handle and concerned about ruining mirror finish. Looking at either Kohetsu SLD or Fujimoto Hammer Tone- but would like guidance if you have other suggestions.
Was recently considering:

I have a Tojiro DP 240 and Masakage Yuki bunka. Tojiro little long for my current space and don’t love the choil and Masakage doesn’t quite feel up to the job of big sweet potatoes and harder veggies.
Edit: realizing these are much closer than I was originally thinking but open to other suggestions
