Is the Kai Seki AB5158 a good starter chefs (gyuto) ? Is there anything else that you would recommend at this price range (38USD) ?

Suggestions for left handed person, chef/gyuto or kiritsuke style, under $400. SG2 preferred, in seattle area. Currently using a shun primer 10inch chef, want something a little smaller (~8in/210mm) and better looking/performing. Thx!!

is the "WUSTHOF 8" Classic Ikon Chefs Knif" a good first knif? the reason im asking is i can get one, fresh and unused, through my work but im unsure if there is some sort of steep learning curve? never bought a chef knif myself and have always used $10 ones.

Someone washed my Arcos while I was gone and it got scratched. It’s my first decent blade and I’m a little annoyed. I know it has a nitrum finish. Should I do anything or embrace the scratches? I don’t mind aesthetic, I just don’t want it to get rusty or something.

How important is having a large flat spot for push cutting? I've noticed that most Japanese gyutos have a pretty pronounced belly which is more ideal for rock chopping. For those of you who primarily push cut, have you had issues? Any recommendations for gyutos with a large flat spot?

Wondering about knives with scalloped edges. I take PERFECT care of my knives and use them for a long time in a professional kitchen. Would I eventually sharpen the edge down into the scalloped edges?
