Need help deciding - K-tip Gyuto or Bunka?

I went to Tower Knives in Osaka today and saw a style I really like, bit can't decide between the K-tip gyuto or the bunka. I know there's not really a right choice as it comes down to needs and preferences, but are there benefits to each over the other?

I've been to Seisuke in previous trips to Japan, but was unsure of the quality and wondered if it was just a tourist trap compared to the more traditional shops like Sugimoto, Aritsugu, or Masahisa, and I went with Sugimoto each time. I've always been impressed with the appearance of Seisuke's knives. Are the lower budget knives here good for everyday use? Or should I stick to the more traditional shops? I'm also considering Tower Knives in Skytree too.

I'll be traveling to Japan soon and I want to buy a DS Lite to customize and maybe a 3DS XL since mine is having issues where it randomly turns off. Is there anything to look out for or be careful of? I've never bought a used system before.

What's a decent price for these systems? I looked on Yahoo Autions and Mercari and the 3DS is a lot more expensive than I was expecting.

I heard about screen yellowing, so I'll ask to check the system first.

I used to live in Japan for a few years, so I know all of the main second-hand stores - Book Off, Hard Off, Surugaya, Super Potato, etc. I won't have time to go out to the big Hard Off in Hachioji, unfortunately. Are there any other shops to check out in Tokyo or Osaka?

I just got a new Galaxy S26 and I used Chrome Sync to copy my tabs over to my new phone (it was a ton of tabs). I was trying to close tabs out when something glitched and the tabs multiplied numerous times. I now have 6,500 tabs open apparently. Is there any way to easily fix this without manually closing thousands of tabs? Can I turn off sync, close all tabs, and then re-enable sync to copy the tabs from my old device again?
