One of the most respected hand engraver in Japan, also known as the man who engraved the famous Peacemaker.

It all started when…

Katsuya Fujimoto - the second generation and current president, is an artist from the soul. His appreciation for art and craftsmanship does not only stay within golf but expands to western firearm engravings. Meeting Japan’s most appreciated engraver Katsuo Iura’s work was one of his most inspiring moments in his life as a craftsman. He immediately felt a strong connection with him through his work. Katsuya Fujimoto explained “I immediately knew when I saw his work that we share the same spirit. I am not equipped with steady hands and patience like him, but I can feel the devotion towards his art work just like how I am to my work.” 

Katsuo Iura stepped into the world of engraving in 1962 and worked as the right-hand man of the late Master Shirou Ogawa. The name of Katsuo Iura became popular amongst the gun and rifle world when he was commissioned to engrave John Wayne’s famous Peacemaker. Shortly after, he opened the doors of his own private studio in Tokyo in 1972. Till this day, Katsuo Iura strictly engraves only by hand, ringing a pleasant tapping sound throughout the studio with his chisel and hammer.

商品説明:

FTシリーズのフラグシップモデルにふさわしい、無駄を一切削ぎ落とした洗練されたフォルムの下に職人の見えない努力が眠る。こだわり抜いた国産の軟鉄素材を使い、一つ一つ職人がじっくり72時間かけて*焼き鈍しをした、まさに軟鉄鍛造ヘッドの最高傑作。保温性の優れた藁灰の中で長時間かけて*焼き鈍しをする事により、通常の鍛造工程による余分な内部組織の歪みを素材本来の状態に補正することが出来ます。これにより、芯のある本当の意味での柔らかい軟鉄鍛造ヘッドが出来上がります。

*焼き鈍し：鍛造された鉄を再度芯まで加熱し、保温環境下で徐々に冷却する熱処理法である。
