also worth mentioning the wa kiritsuke is double beveled so it is really a flat gyuto with a different tip.

G series? Isn't that the low end VG-10 line? I thought the wa version used the super secret steel version...

Everything Nenohi/Nenox uses seems to be some super secret steel recipe. The only thing that has slipped out corporate communications in the last few years was that the steel in the high end Nenox - S1, Red handle & Corian - was going to be upgraded from VG1 to VG10.

I've talked with several people who use Nenox knives... And based on the edge retention and ease of sharpening, I highly doubt that it is VG 1, 10, 1s or any other variation. Then again, that's just my opinion.
