Whenever I need to stand on tiny little nothings, I'll reach for the Katakis... Right out of the box, I could feel a pronounced difference in the Kataki's aggressive, downturned toe—the shoe shaped my foot into a curled talon more so than any pair of Miuras ever did. This talon shape is what makes the Kataki shine when you need to toe-in on a thin edge to keep your body close to the rock, or focus all your weight precisely onto a tiny crystal that's so small you can hardly see it.

... the Otaki is well suited towards hanging around on small holds/edges (i.e. trad climbing) or using even smaller edges to move quickly and efficiently upwards to the lower-off (i.e. sport climbing). The stiffness and support that the boot offers makes it quite versatile, particularly for the UK climber, as it is well suited towards a wide variety of different angles from edgy slabs, through vertical walls, to gently overhanging terrain.
