Is there a US version of the Daiwa Expert Tenkara?

We could not find the Expert Tenkara 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 Expert Tenkara LT 33·W: 3.30 m (10'10") long, 8 pieces, 52 cm (20.5 in) folded, weighs 73 g (2.6 oz) (maker's figures).
  • 4 models from 3.30 m (10'10") to 3.63 m (11'11"), in 8- to 9-piece builds.
  • The shortest packed length is 52 cm (20.5 in) (EXPERT Tenkara LL 33·W).
  • Weights run from 73 g (2.6 oz) on the EXPERT Tenkara LL 33·W to 83 g (2.9 oz) on the EXPERT Tenkara LT 36·W.
  • Carbon content 94–98% depending on the model.
  • Japan list price ¥27,000–¥29,000, which is in the lower-middle of the price range of the 1440 rod series we list.
  • Short rods for small mountain streams (keiryu).
  • 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.
