What Japanese knife would you recommend for a gift?

Hello, My adult son loves to cook and is really into Japanese kitchen knives. I’d like to get him something for his birthday, but I don’t know which knives he already owns or what he’d want next. I’d rather not spoil the surprise by asking him. What would you recommend?

Customer Review of the Week! Thanks Andrew!

Thanks for your fantastic site. I ordered a Gyuto and a couple Kuhn Rikon products for my girlfriend some years ago, and I was so pleased that I'm coming back for me. I appreciate that I can trust the quality of your no-nonsense functional inventory, and if I want something more elegant, I can also find it here.
