February 1, 200520 yr 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?
March 25, 200520 yr what u need to do is ask at fgi. i am from malaysia, as i heard it cos i know the owner of a large retail store here and singapore. they had a falling out with HONMa and then "recruited" one of thiers designers and came out with Katana there was a split abt 2 years ago katana sword is the japanese version and katana is the malaysian version... i think u need to ask ali_g he knows the skinny
March 28, 200520 yr Author 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.
