Is there a US version of the Daiwa Kizashi?

We could not find the Kizashi 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 Kizashi 12·J: 3.60 m (11'10") long, 4 pieces, 98 cm (38.6 in) folded, weighs 90 g (3.2 oz) (maker's figures).
  • 10 models from 2.10 m (6'11") to 5.40 m (17'9"), in 3- to 5-piece builds.
  • The shortest packed length is 76 cm (29.9 in) (7·J).
  • Weights run from 49 g (1.7 oz) on the 7·J to 120 g (4.2 oz) on the 18·J.
  • Carbon content 88–98% depending on the model.
  • Japan list price ¥60,000–¥118,000, which is in the top 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.
