What is the hardness of this knife?

In the product description it lists the hardness at 62.

How heavy is the knife itself and how tall is the blade profile

Blade is 8 inches long. Mine weighs 6.3 oz. (not "0.6" pounds as indicated in the specs).

Is this a right handed knife?

No. It's ambidextrous. 1) the handle isn't right-handed like some Shun knives w/ the D-shaped handle. 2) the blade is taped the same on both sides, as is the blade edge--i.e., as best as I can determine, not having the right tools available to me these days. No one side of the blade is flat or concave. 3) Also, the is thin compared to western-style chef's knives.
