I don't know how much you have to cut to accomodate your space.
If you can I suggest you keep #'s 2,3,4,5 and off 1,6 & 7.
If you must cull deeper i suggest 3 and 5 are keepers for sure.

Don't be too uptight about size at this stage. judge on the thickness of the beni
and the clean edges of the kiwa. Sashi should be no deeper than a scale and a half. One i said to off has too small a pattern and another has a suspect red pattern that i don't believe will hold as it gets older.
