Is there a US version of the Daiwa DEEP Viper Chufukaba SP?

We could not find the DEEP Viper Chufukaba SP by name in Daiwa’s 2026-27 US catalog (printed, July 2026), so the sizes and specs on this page are the Japan-market ones. Sellers who ship from Japan are the usual source for this exact model in the US; a US dealer may still carry a related model under a different name.

About this item

What the maker's numbers say about this model:

  • The shortest packed length is 165 cm (65.0 in) (M-205).
  • Weights run from 410 g (14.5 oz) on the M-205 to 465 g (16.4 oz) on the MH-205.
  • 29% carbon.
  • Japan list price ¥110,000–¥112,000, which is in the top quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
  • Rated by Daiwa for sinkers #80–#300 (300–1125 g).
  • Japanese party-boat fishing. Styles and tackle are specific to Japan.
  • Sizes marked go (号) are the Japanese standard. For sinkers one go is exactly 3.75 g, so we convert it; for line it is a diameter class rather than a breaking strain, so we print the maker's number as published.
  • Specs are Daiwa's published figures; conversions to imperial are ours.

How the sizes differ

  • Compared with the M-205, the MH-205 is the same length and 55 g heavier, takes up to 300 go sinkers (50 go more) and costs ¥2,000 more in Japan.
