xxio Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 Do you have any inside info on why there are two companies? One is the Katana Golf Ltd Japan which actually no longer uses Katana but "Sword" and the other which is Katana Golf out of Malaysia. I heard there was a split about a year or two ago. I would be biased for the Katana Japan because I have hit their products but what are the details? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xxio Posted March 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2005 Tariq, I got Ali Gs side when I posted on that board as well. His first answer was "incomplete". I got extra info later on that pieced it all together. Shame another company (GD comes to mind)that could've made huge strides but other issues come into play.
