Is there a US version of the Daiwa Purelist AK?

We could not find the Purelist AK 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 124 cm (48.8 in) (116H-3).
  • Weights run from 230 g (8.1 oz) on the 106MH-2 to 275 g (9.7 oz) on the 126H-3.
  • Rated for lures from 10 g to 70 g (0.35–2.5 oz) across the range.
  • 99% carbon.
  • Japan list price ¥36,000–¥41,000, which is in the lower-middle of the price range of the 1440 rod series we list.
  • Rated by Daiwa for lures 10–70 g (0.35–2.5 oz).
  • 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 106MH-2, the 116H-3 is 31 cm longer and 10 g heavier, takes up to 60 g lures (10 g more), packs to 124 cm (vs 164 cm) and costs ¥1,000 more in Japan.
  • Compared with the 116H-3, the 126H-3 is 30 cm longer and 35 g heavier, takes up to 70 g lures (10 g more), packs to 134 cm (vs 124 cm) and costs ¥4,000 more in Japan.
