Is there a US version of the Daiwa Tenkara X?
We could not find the Tenkara 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 Tenkara X 30: 2.96 m (9'9") long, 8 pieces, 46 cm (18.1 in) folded, weighs 81 g (2.9 oz) (maker's figures).
- 4 models from 2.96 m (9'9") to 3.94 m (12'11"), in 8- to 11-piece builds.
- The shortest packed length is 46 cm (18.1 in) (30).
- Weights run from 81 g (2.9 oz) on the 30 to 107 g (3.8 oz) on the 39.
- Carbon content 81–88% depending on the model.
- Japan list price ¥16,000–¥17,500, which is in the bottom quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
- Short rods for small mountain streams (keiryu).
- 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.
