Hi, I was going to suggest something cheap, but good (ie. forschner, mac, etc.) as well. Not because you dont deserve to have something better. I just assume beater tasks are part of the job description and don't believe a nicer, prettier, higher performance knife would do well. I'm just a home cook and use gyuto for most everything, but reserve the nasty stuff for a western chef knife or cleaver.
Japanese chefs knives (aka gyuto) generally have thinner, lighter, harder (~5865HRC) blades capable of taking and retaining a more acute cutting edge == greater precision cutting & slicing. But are more difficult to sharpen, more susceptible to chipping and not made for striking / impacting hard items (shells, bones, frozen food). Their blade is shaped like a traditional French cooks knife (more triangular, mostly flat cutting edge and pointy tip); adept at draw slicing (pulling the knife from heel to tip of blade back towards you).
European chefs knives tend have thick, heavy, soft (~52-56HRC) blades capable of handling heavy-duty chores (cutting through poultry / fish bones, splitting lobsters, thick-skinned veggies), and withstanding abuse. Their steel is pliable enough to dent or roll (as opposed to chip), and relatively easy to resharpened, but also easily dulled and unable to take an acute cutting edge. Thier blades have a wide spine, deep / rounded belly and curved tip; for rock-chopping (rocking against the belly) and heel cutting.
As far as I can tell, the Henckle Miyabi series has several variations. The 5000 series appears to be nothing more than the traditional softer euro-steel in traditional Japanese shapes. The 7000D & pro series (w/ 60-ish hrc, Damascus cladding) is likely to be VG-10 (or some similar). VG-10 was designed for kitchen knives and the go-to standard for ss. Henckle (like many other brands) maybe getting their blade from the same factory; its not uncommon to see a similar (if not the same) blade across different brands, so choose whichever brand has the best price, handle, f&f, etc. The 7000mc with the 66 hrc (holy crap) has to be some sort super-steel (zdp-189 or Cowry Y); probably an awesome slicer, but could be too brittle, chippy for chef knife tasks.
