Is there a US version of the Daiwa KISU X?
We could not find the KISU X 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 84 cm (33.1 in) (M-160·K).
- Weights run from 70 g (2.5 oz) on the M-160·K to 83 g (2.9 oz) on the H-175·K.
- Carbon content 89–91% depending on the model.
- Japan list price ¥18,000–¥19,000, which is in the bottom quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
- Rated by Daiwa for sinkers #5–#35 (18.75–131.25 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.
