Is there a US version of the Daiwa Hamon?

We could not find the Hamon 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 Hamon Kocho 21·J: 6.30 m (20'8") long, 6 pieces, 119 cm (46.9 in) folded, weighs 175 g (6.2 oz) (maker's figures).
  • 10 models from 2.70 m (8'10") to 7.20 m (23'7"), in 3- to 7-piece builds.
  • The shortest packed length is 109 cm (42.9 in) (Choko 12·J).
  • Weights run from 48 g (1.7 oz) on the Kocho 9·J to 230 g (8.1 oz) on the Kocho 24·J.
  • Carbon content 96–99% depending on the model.
  • Japan list price ¥16,000–¥28,000, which is in the bottom quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
  • 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.
