Is there a US version of the Daiwa Kyokuei Kawahagi EX?
We could not find the Kyokuei Kawahagi EX 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 172 cm (67.7 in) (Kyokuei Kawahagi EX SF).
- Weights run from 52 g (1.8 oz) on the Kyokuei Kawahagi EX SF to 55 g (1.9 oz) on the Kyokuei Kawahagi EX VS.
- 99% carbon.
- Japan list price ¥88,500–¥89,500, which is in the top quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
- Rated by Daiwa for sinkers #3–#35 (11.25–131.25 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.
How the sizes differ
- Compared with the SF, the VS is 3 cm longer and 3 g heavier, packs to 175 cm (vs 172 cm) and costs ¥1,000 less in Japan.
- Compared with the VS, the MC is 3 cm longer and the same weight, packs to 178 cm (vs 175 cm) and costs ¥1,000 more in Japan.
