scrappy Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 I recently purchased these from someone and they were identified only as "Japanese blades" . They have a classic look/design and feel great to play. I am hoping someone may have seen the symbols or can read what I am led to believe is Japanese so I can finally find out what kind of blade I have been playing. I put in the paintfill temporarily to make it easier to pick up the symbols with my camera. Can anyone identify these blades? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gocchin Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 Never seen them before. Just because they have kanji on them may not mean they are Japanese. The kanji says "contains pure gold" that plus the shape of the head and grind make me think it's probably not Japanese unfortunately, at least not something I know of.

scrappy Posted April 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 My mystery continues. I did not expect them to be worth much except as a conversation piece, but was very surprised at the way they played when I actually took them out for a round. Thank you for the reply.

gocchin Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 Got more pics? How does the rest of the set look? Topline? Face? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mofo.66 Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 (edited) form what I can tell...this is probably some promotional stuff...or some "independent" stuff...those independent stuff are all over the Yahoo bid, Taiwan... Basically, molded stainless steel club head..with probably plated a thin coat of 24/18k gold (as far as I can tell from the hazing surface with what those words say...and then I took a guess...) those characters are Traditional Chinese not exactly Japaneses, although they both do share some. On the sole...Golden Dream...on the blade...pure gold conformed ... So if it was a promotional "gift" of some...2nd grade product...I wouldn't be surprised. enjoy Edited April 16, 2008 by mofo.66 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrappy Posted April 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 Thanks for the translations. Here are a few pics if it helps anyone recognize the shape. They are in excellent shape, very few scratches or dings and just in need of a little polishing to really shine. Thanks again, I really appreciate the help finding out what they are....even if they are Chinese. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
