Opinions on the Sakai Takayuki Homura Kogetsu Gyuto, by Itsuo Doi?

[Foelonemse]

I'm browsing knives online again (much to the dismay of my wallet) and i've found myself drawn to the profile of the Sakai Takayuki Homura Kogestsu 240mm Gyuto by Itsuo Doi - does anyone have any experience using this knife/style of knife, or could fill me in a little on what to expect from this blacksmith? I've attached a listing photo for reference just in case I absolutely butchered the spelling and no-one knows what i'm talking about. Thanks!
