I think a more accurate way to but it is fear of losing control of their "ghoul side" rather than their Kagune. Even kuro!Kaneki had some trouble with this at first since he wasn't used to it (putting a whole through Yomo's stomach) and he was much more mentally stable at the time.

That's one of the down sides of Sasaki having amnesia: he can't explain these things properly. Kaneki already accepted his ghoul side and fully indulged in using his Kagune. Sasaki hasn't. Kaneki already made his mistakes and went through the motions. Sasaki hasn't.

One of the most important things Sasaki is supposed to do, teach the Quinx how to master and gain control of their ghoul powers, but he can't quite do it himself.
