I have been told by a good source that Daiwa are making the blanks and building the rods

Daiwa are making the blanks from what I have been told too, there almost an identical build to an infinity and also the same idea where there a thicker diameter blank but thinner wall thickness.

Haven't Daiwa also just released or releasing 4lb test curve rods. Would make sense and also a good thing if they have made kordas.

I had a look at these earlier today in Johnson Ross.
My thoughts, very very lightweight blanks that remind me of the Daiwa Infinity Blanks, they feel very "Crisp" in the hand, obviously cannot tell what they're like from a minute in a tackle shop but I'd imagine they are a good fit if you're fishing big, snaggy pits, they don't feel like the sort of rods you'd want to be using down your local day ticket lake.
In terms of the finish, very underwhelming in looks, Matt Black finish with Gloss Black whippings, build quality looked good but they definitely do not look anything special.
The Landing net though did look very nice, I've got a Dymag Mk2 and a Mk3 so know what a good net feels like, this did feel like a quality bit of kit, again very lightweight and did feel rigid in the shop.
Not 100% sure on the styling of the Spreader Block personally, it is quite large, and the Mesh is too deep for me, will be interesting to see if the start supplying it with the shallow mesh instead at a later date!

Could always change the Mesh to a shallower one. Had a look at the net at the Farnborough show. Looks bespoke quality for the mass produced markett. Impressed

Yeah that's true but not sure that should have to be the case on a £250 Net.
